World’s first ‘superfast’ battery offers 400km range from 10 mins charge

Not once in the entire article do they measure energy in a unit suitable for measuring energy.

Measuring batteries in km is misleading and nonsensical. Batteries do not have a distance range. Cars have a distance range, based on many factors, only one of which is battery capacity.

Similarly, please stop measuring light output in watts that an imaginary incandescent bulb from 30 years ago might theoretically have used to produce that amount of light.

Show me an article promising substantially better battery tech in less than 5years and I will show you a steaming hot pile of crap.

How quickly will capacity degrade charging at that speed?

Which is great. No need to poo poo it.

However. Fast charge isn't really necessary unless you are on a long journey over 400 km and need to charge on route or you drive a lot. Eg taxi Uber etc.

Best thing ever industry can do for planet would be a 350km car that's cheap. That's really what most car users require. They drive to and from work and most drive less than 100km a day.

Just like a phone you charge over night and don't need oooodles of range.

Anyone going on long trips really should be using a train with another vehicle if required at the destination.

Truckers are a different story and should be separated from the day to days if average car users

Know what's better than a battery that charges fast? A train with a catenary that never has to charge at all

Uses the same charging infrastructure? If not, how long for that to be put in place?

What an explosive revelation!
