Whoever has an electric car knows what it is like to wait, but whoever has not decided on it sees it as an impediment. But this can change with this battery that fully charges in 6 minutes… without also deteriorating.
If you are an electric car user, you have surely demanded more fast charging positions and, above all, more powerful ones. The advantage is that lately you have been able to opt for vehicles with ranges of autonomy greater than 400 kilometers in real circulation. In this way, when you come to make a stop at a fast or ultra-fast charger, stop the 30 minutes of rigor to stretch your legs, rest or regain strength, coming back and having 80% of the load is normal and normal.

However, there are those who still see this as a delay and as a great loss, especially in the case of making more frequent faces. But that may be a thing of the past thanks to the new battery developed by the British company nyobolt, with the launch of the EV Concept. A prototype that has surely caught your attention due to its resemblance to a Lotus Elise S1 but about which we are hardly going to tell you anything because in reality It will not be marketed as it has only served as a casing for what is really important: the mentioned battery.

And it is that the company dedicated to the development of ultra-fast charging batteries promise to have 100% capacity ready in the same time it takes to fill a tank of gasoline: 6 minutes. Now surely many have raised their ears as they say colloquially but we have to tell you that it has something of a trick. And this is his ability. Because we are talking about a total of 35 kWh (the same as a Mazda MX-30 or a MINI Cooper SE, to name a few) it would remain to circulate without stopping up to 250 kilometers. Does it seem little to you? Maybe if we only have to wait 6 minutes no. What the company has not commented on is how much charging power it would admit, but they have been successfully tested. for more than 2,000 rapid charge cycles without showing any loss of performance. According to the British company, this battery would be ready to start production in 2023 and can be mounted on any model in the sector.
