"BYD also claims to have addressed the well-known issue of lithium iron phosphate cells losing performance in cold temperatures. After the cells were stored for 24 hours at –30 degrees Celsius and therefore completely frozen, charging from 20 to 97 per cent reportedly took just twelve minutes."

As the US sabotages the globe's fossil fuel infrastructure at the behest of Israel, China continues to build the future that will replace it. One by one, the naysayers' objections to EVs melt away. Can't do cold climates, they said - fixed. Can't cope with long journeys, they said - fixed.

As Napoleon once famously observed, 'never interrupt your enemy while they're making a mistake'. China must be thinking that, as the US helps hand it total dominance of the 21st century energy infrastructure.

Sure enough, not everyone lies insane amounts like Elmo

But saying that this is true BECAUSE it's not Tesla is not the right logic here

For my part; I know that companies do tend to skew % and other things in their favor when they make bold claims. Also, it's a Chinese company and ok sorry, but historically, those haven't been the most trustworthy either

So take that in one had, and extremely bold claims with zero evidence in another, I'm weighing that, and finding it insufficient.

Hence, I'll believe it when I see the actual evidence
