Chery Joins China’s EV Charging Race With A Bold Promise

  • Chery says Volt-dragon can add 311 miles in five minutes and plans 20,000 V2G-enabled stations by 2029.
  • Chinese outlets report a room-temperature test achieved a 10–97% charge in six minutes and 50 seconds.
  • The test vehicle, battery capacity and timeline for customers to access that performance remain unclear.

Seven minutes used to be barely enough time to get a public charger working, buy a coffee, and try to remember where you parked. Chery says it’s now enough to take an EV battery from almost empty to almost full, an impressive claim. But it’s not clear which of its cars can actually do it.
