    ZEEKR unveils LFP batteries that can recharge 500km in 15 mins

    Normally it's laughable when hearing of new battery Tech, because in actuality it's still being developed in a university & such. The stories turn out to be in reality - how far out production really is. The specs on this traction pack seem to defy physics. Faster charging when cold soaked? Still usable after being water submerged? &/or exposed to 1,000° C temperatures?
    How often did PT Barnum say suckers are born? Electric Viking shows video demonstration of Geely traction pack exposures & he seems giddy.



    Having followed Geely for years - since it's infancy - they've never seen to be a reliable player, so - color me skeptical ... but it does seem to be going into production now.
