BYD said its domestic supercharging network is advancing toward a year-end target of 20,000 stations, with the 10,000th station and 2,000th highway station already in operation, covering more than 300 cities. As flash-charge models head overseas in volume, BYD will begin large-scale overseas station rollout by end-2026, planning 6,000 overseas supercharging stations, with sites already landed in Europe and the Americas.
The company describes the strategy as moving from 'Supercharge China' to 'Supercharge Planet,' with overseas station deployment matched to local model launches and prioritizing charging experience for flash-charge users; the stations are open to all brands. BYD added that recent models - the second-generation Seagull flash-charge edition, Da Han and second-generation Seal 07 EV - all carry flash charging, addressing slow charging and cold-weather charging pain points (10%-70% in 5 minutes, 10%-97% in 9 minutes; only 3 minutes more even at -30 C).
