As long charging times remain a concern for Electric Vehicle (EV) users, this is a step towards making EVs more practical, said Stella Li, executive vice president of BYD and CEO of the company's operations in the Americas and Europe.
Although no operational charging points have been set up yet, the demo highlighted how the motorists could soon recharge their cars just as quick as refuelling at a petrol station.
