"CATL's third-generation Shenxing Superfast Charging Battery can charge from 10% to 35% in 1 minute, from 10% to 80% in 3 minutes and 44 seconds, and from 10% to 98% in 6 minutes and 27 seconds."
"This effectively closes the gap with internal combustion engine vehicles, according to Bernstein analysts, highlighting the significant advancements in battery technology."
"EV batteries often struggle in extremely cold temperatures, which can reduce a vehicle's range and slow down the time it takes to recharge."

This advancement positions CATL ahead of competitors like BYD, which recently launched its own fast-charging battery. The new Shenxing Superfast Charging Battery can charge from 10% to 35% in one minute and from 10% to 80% in three minutes and 44 seconds.
