Although even that is moving in the right direction via synthetic fuels to hydrogen and even some battery electric in public projects in the UK. Depends how ‘heavy’ we’re talking I guess. I wonder how long it’ll take the monster machines used in mining to make the shift…
Very interesting technology
, although this will take years to roll out.
And I think you mean “this will bring EVs into the same category of convenience as ICEs”. There’s still many things EVs fall short of compared to ICEs.
Agreed regarding roll out - in the UK the grid is struggling to cope with rollout of Tesla and similar charging networks - there’s no way it’s ready to cope with the demand from widespread adoption of what BYD proposes, nor will it be for many years!
I think you pinpointed the ‘category of convenience’ phrase very well. What you say after that is highly subjective and there are no doubt many specifics that could be discussed at all sorts of levels!
can't wait to see this actually roll out
250 miles in 5 minutes instantly makes electric vehicles better than ICE in every possible way with the exception of heavy earthmoving machinery.
