Chinese car maker Zeekr claimed that its latest electric vehicle (EV) batteries charge faster than those of any of its competitors, including industry giants Tesla and BYD. The company announced that its upgraded batteries could be charged from 10% to 80% capacity in just 10 and a half minutes using its ultra-fast charging stations.
In comparison, Tesla’s Model 3, as stated by Elon Musk’s company, can cover 175 miles (282km) with a 15-minute charge, which is slightly less than half of the vehicle’s full range. Zeekr’s new 2025 007 sedan, set to launch next week, will be the first of the company’s vehicles to feature this innovative battery.
