Hyundai also equips all their egmp cars (like my car) with 800v charging. I am in out in 15 minutes on a fast charger. Elon is too busy looking for groyper accounts to retweet to update slow charging on his cars.
Good news - Tesla just said on their earnings call that their own battery, the 4680 has the lowest cost per kWh. Thats way more important than 5 min charging which is simply a fuction of power output and battery size.
The first four days of the Trump Administration have been packed with news.
That's why I'm excited to launch: , a daily (M-F) newsletter delivered at ~noon that highlights the story of the day from the 47th President.

I remember a long long long time ago in the mid 2000s when the U.S. was the world’s technological leader. Now we’re just focused on trying to bring shoe manufacturing back to the U.S.
These types of breakthroughs spur progress and drive constructive competition.
It’s good for humanity.
Like when Bannister cracked the 4-min mile, and a year later three guys ran sub-four in the same race.
It will happen here too.
will make it happen.
That's okay, the Cato Institute assures me that it doesn't matter that we can't make things anymore.
I have an idea. We could tell them they can make them here.. but they have to share the technology with the government. Then the government can steal the technology and give it to Tesla.
How much does Breaking Points get from the CCP? I used to watch your show every day because I wanted to hear a balanced perspective but now it just feels like I’m watching MSNBC or a Chinese propaganda outlet. So sad.
Our electrical grid is holding us back. Even if we had the charging tech, we couldn’t use it in practical terms with our current restraints. So American companies haven’t pursued it as heavily.
The issue is battery wear and tear from rapid charging, this is a limitation of the chemistries.
The charging speed is not a challenge for anyone.

5 mins for topping a tank from empty in an ICE? No way.
And Tesla superchargers can charge 150mi in the first 15 mins.
And what does charging within 5 mins do to battery's longevity?
I'm a car nerd and do appreciate EV's abilities but my god they're fucking boring. Even 5min charging. I get it that's a huge leap forward for EVs. But I truly could not care less.
Idk EVs have more in common with cell phones than traditional cars
Just like Apple, they were never first but always the best.
This technology right now is going to have reliability issues for some time. Once the kinks are worked out and the science is understood, others “Tesla” will follow.
It's just hype. There is zero chance anyone is going to build out a usable, very expensive, 1mw charging network for passenger cars.
The entire idea of 5 minute charging is over-rated. When you own EV, you mostly charge at home overnight. When you do roadtrips, taking a rest room/snack break takes 10-15 minutes, which is enough in today's charging speeds to get another 2-3 hours of driving.
Patience. Tesla is on it. They have lowered the cost of their in-house 4680 batteries to the point that it's now their cheapest option, even before considering the impact of tariffs. Tesla is in the process of rolling out their first LFP batteries. Although they started later
Also, it's completely irrelevant. I've owned an EV for 9 months, driven 20,000+ miles and not once have I had to wait for it to charge. You almost never charge on the road, and if you do, you do something in the meanwhile and it's done before you are.
Our hottest launch of 2024 is here!

I question his much they are cooking the battery pack each time they do that.
I also question how many chargers are actually capable of pushing that.
15 minutes is all I ever need. It's a nice quiet time for me. 5 minutes is cool but not life changing.
Cool, well once they solve it we can just steal the tech, like they do with every single American innovation
I can put over 34 gal of gas in my truck in under 5 min and drive close to 700mi on that tank. 
That’s actually good news, Americans don’t deserve five minute EV charging.

China’s 5-minute EV charging leap exposes a brutal truth: While Beijing pours billions into strategic dominance, D.C. drowns in tariff chaos and policy whiplash. The 2025 global tariff rollout—originally meant to reset trade—became a masterclass in dysfunction, with semiconductor
I don't really think fast charging is that important to EVs. Maybe it is for people that don't have a charger at 'home'?

EV isnt sustainable anyway. Too many rare earth minerals mined by slave labor, too much strain on the power grid.
And they have a Thorium reactor looking to be operational by 2030. Meanwhile the West wants to deindustrialize and go net zero. I’ve never seen a civilization willingly commit suicide like this in pursuit of morality.
Imagine being of Indian & Hindu heritage, and continuing to tweet about cars and tariffs days after a devastating terror attack.
Maybe if Gaza health ministry publishes the death toll figures his ears will perk up.
I can't believe I gave this deracinated cuck money.
Maybe we should steal their IP like they have been doing for a long time now.

Meanwhile the US requires corporations to amortize R&D, pushing tens of thousands of technical workers out of the workforce. #section174
China just delivered 5-minute EV charging. CATL: 520 km (323 mi) in 5 min/BYD: 400 km (248 mi) in 5 min
Fastest competitors:
a) Tesla (U.S.): ~200 miles in 15 mins/b) Porsche (Germany): ~350 miles in 15 mins/c) Hyundai (South Korea): ~200+ miles in 18–20 mins
And then it’s a
We will just use the Chinese playbook and steal the IP. Once it has been figured out elsewhere it will be done here.
Why bother when you can swap batteries in 3 minutes. Without the downside of battery degradation that comes from super fast charging. And having the flexibility to change your battery capacity any time.
There is a third issue
We are never going to see a mass build out of megawatt chargers for consumers.
How much would it cost to build a ten stall charging station if all ten stations have to deliver a megawatt hour each ?

This is the problem with people who know nothing about technology talking about technology. Even if they can achieve 5 minute charging, it’s not practical for widespread use because of the amperage flow required.
Awesome, we can just steal it from them like they love to do when American companies innovate. No worries!
I’d really love if you/the team would cover the Hamas style terrorist attack in Pahalgam. You guys cover intnl news and this is massive change in the status quo in Kashmir . I hope and will do thorough factual reporting given ISI contacts
Both being Chinese is good news too. The US can choose to access these batteries if it wishes to.
The magnetic field it creates only gives you cancer well after 5 yrs of exposure.
summing up Chinese ev industry, Cadillac level styling , interiors,performance for chevrolet level pricing. Porche level for Volkswagen pricing. Most car brands are cooked if they don't pivot to this model.
But we are ahead of the game is super size drinks and steroidal meats from grassing cows that we feed corn instead of grass. 
Also bad news: It won’t happen in china either unless they steal it from the US.
Biden spent five billion and erected two charging stations. Talk about that. Who stole those billions Saagar? As always you love to bark up the wrong tree. What a male feminist you've become.
Obama gave the battery tech to China.
We can't spill the beans about the release date of Maki: Paw of Fury, but make no mistake, things are happening!

Have a great day!
Since China has been stealing our IP for decades, why not do the same to them?
You should prob keep shitting on Trump and tariff policy if this concerned you. He’s the only president to address this issue in our lifetimes.
