Chinese Automaker Nio Unveiled A New Ultra-Fast Charger, Capable Of Charging 80% Of An Electric Car Battery In 12 Minutes

The Nio Day 2022 event, which took place on Saturday (24), was the stage for the unveiling of new developments from the Chinese automaker Nio. The brand was able to announce its new 500 kW ultra-fast charger, capable of charging 80% of an electric car battery in just 12 minutes. Like the rest of the company’s charging network, it will be able to be used by vehicles from other brands. Additionally, Nio presented the new version of its electric car ES8, which will arrive in the local market in June 2023.

Electric Cars From Other Brands Will Be Able To Take Advantage Of The New Nio Charger Technology

Owners of electric vehicles from other brands who want to take advantage of the technology provided by Nio to charge their batteries ultra-fast will be able to use the brand’s new 500 kW charger. Even if they are not like Nio’s electric cars, which can swap batteries on their own at the brand’s stations, other cars can also utilize the automaker’s ultra-fast charging technology.

According to Nio, its new 500 kW charger is capable of charging up to 80% of the battery of an electric car on an 800 V platform in 12 minutes. However, if the car is 400 V, it will take about 20 minutes to charge the same percentage.

Regarding the technical details of the charger, the automaker provided some information, such as the use of Nio’s liquid cooling technology, which makes the cable lighter and easier to operate with one hand. Additionally, an interesting feature of the model is the 15.6-inch screen.

Power Swap 3.0 Battery Swap Station

At the brand’s event, Nio also presented the third generation of its battery swap stations, which, like the charger, is set to go into operation in March of next year. The new battery swap station is capable of performing the procedure up to 20% faster than its predecessor. The Power Swap 3.0 has 21 battery packs and can perform up to 408 swaps per day.
