PHYSIX OBSERVATION
BYD is pushing flash charging and the second-generation Blade battery down to its Fangchengbao flagship, and charging speed is becoming a new selling point for hybrids. For users, only 3 extra minutes of charging in cold weather is more tangible than range figures; for rivals, the technical bar in the 9-series large six-seat market has been raised, and the pressure to keep up is considerable.
