This car should blow people away, the new BYD Tang-L. A 7-seater. Coming to Australia this year apparently. Can charge at up to 1000 kW, meaning you could add 400km of range in only 5 minutes. The electric motors in it produce over 1000 horsepower, with a 0-100 km/h time of 3.9 seconds for the AWD version. They’ll also offer it as a plug-in hybrid for the range anxiety sufferers. All-electric range of the plug-in hybrid will be about 140km, and about 1000km when driven as a hybrid. The pure-electric will have a range of about 500km. Also excitingly, big Chinese firms like BYD are looking to install super fast chargers in Australia too. Australians are incredibly lucky to be on good terms with China and getting this tech for a steal. This car will only be about $60,000. In China, to give you an indication of how advanced they are now as a society, this car even ships with a built-in drone that you can launch to take video, as you drive.
