BYD to install 5-minute EV chargers across Europe

I had no idea there were 1500kW fast chargers, this is insanely high power for a car.

Maybe this would be useful for long haul trucks or something where they have large battery capacities and want to save as much time as they can, but it seems like way overkill for any normal person.

>it charges to 70 percent in five minutes on the new chargers.

By my math this means it would charge to 70% in 15 minutes on the 500kW charger? That's already plenty fast, my car does nowhere near 500kW and it's fine the couple of times a year I need it.

5 minutes, for the only model available in EU that costs €120k+
