Rating of electric carcasses by charging speed: Tesla lost to the “Chinese”

The Shanghai edition of Leixing Pindao estimated the speed of “refueling” of cars on batteries. The Chinese Cars portal got acquainted with the study and provided two tables: a rating of charging speeds with 5% of 90% and a rating of specific charging speed (kilowatt hours per minute). With any approach, Tesla is very losing Zeekr, Li Auto, IM, Xpeng and Xiaomi.

The tests were carried out with the optimal temperature of the traction batteries, third -party systems were not used, but for tests, the ZEEKR branded charging with a capacity of 600 kW. Therefore, the Geely premium brand gained an advantage: the new electric cars of this brand took three of the first four places. ZEEKR 7X charged from 5% to 90% in 14 minutes 49 seconds, updated ZEEKR 009 – for 15:54, and ZEEKR 007 – for 24:15. Li Auto Mega wedged between them (15:54). The result of the best “Tesla” is Model Y – 35:26 and this is only the eleventh place.

The Chinese electric car was ahead of Audi, BMW and Mercedes in the winter test The German car club appreciated the supply of Chinese electric cars in winter, the Chinese dismantled Zeekr 001 after 100 thousand km, comparing it to BMW

However, the capacity of traction batteries in different electric cars differs, so it is more reasonable to evaluate the specific charging speed (kilowatt hours per minute). As a result, Li Auto Mega entered the leader: the minivan showed the result of 5.49 kWh per minute. In second place is the updated Zeekr 009 (4.83), the third Zeekr 7x (4.3). The five included IM LS6 (3.42) and Xpeng X9 (2.91). But the best Tesla (Model S Plaid) is only on the seventeenth line with a result of 1.86. Also, in both ratings, NIO models, designed for replaceable batteries, were expected to fail.

For some reason, Chinese observers did not compare local brands with recognized grads: they did not take electric cars Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Volkswagen, Porsche or Ford for research. Also, for some reason, the BYD auto giant models ignored. However, one of the leaders of the electric car segment – the American Tesla – has long ceased to be for young brands from the Middle Kingdom.
