After an investigation revealed alleged violations against workers at the Chinese company BYD’s factory in Bahia, northeastern Brazil, the company installed cameras in the administration and the construction areas and put up posters prohibiting photographs in these spaces.

Farasis said its 6C ultra-fast charging technology allows LFP batteries to charge from 10 percent to 80 percent in 8.55 minutes.

Despite being small, the truck is still rather hefty with a 4,400lb curb weight, regardless of battery option (the larger option uses newer, denser cells to pack more energy in a similar weight). This is still thousands of pounds less than other electric trucks (~6-7k lbs), but (understandably) quite a bit more than the Mini SE (~3,200lbs), and even not far off from the Toyota Tacoma (~4,500lb) to which TELO compares itself. Speaking of that comparison – the TELO truck is a full five feet shorter than the “compact” Toyota Tacoma or four feet shorter than the Maverick, to say nothing of other enormous vehicles in the US. TELO gave us a live demo of what the truck looks like next to both a Mini Cooper SE and a full size RAM 2500 pickup.

Coming back to the 7X and the Mix which will be featuring Zeekr’s Golden battery technology, designed to charge from 10-80% in just over 10 minutes. This has been tested in the real world by many independent EV enthusiasts.

Models with 1000V support will be rolled out gradually in the coming months to the high-end models, allowing charging 300 km in 5 minutes, Auto Pixel reports. Compared with the 800V platforms, every additional 100V increases charging power by 25 kW at the same current.

Yep starting at less than $12,000 US in China, I can’t imagine a sub-20K MSRP would be entirely out of the question
