- tredre3 1y agoTesla and Musk have a long track record of misleading/exaggerated or outright fabricated claims. So far I've seen BYD deliver on all its promises but maybe I missed it (or my bias blinded me), do you have sources to show that BYD routinely lies?

It’s certainly possible that they’ll struggle to hit it but they started as a battery manufacturer (they were even a supplier for Tesla) and control the whole design including custom charging chips and battery cells so if there’s a company which is going to hit this milestone first it would look like them. https://electrek.co/2025/03/17/byd-confirms-1000v-super-e-platform-fast-charging-400km-5-minutes/ https://electrek.co/2025/03/17/byd-confirms-1000v-super-e-pl...
- lawn 1y agoBYD had delivered on their promises while Elon and Tesla have a very long list of broken promises behind them.
