On April 21, at the 2026 CATL Super Tech Day, CATL officially released its third-generation Shenxing Superfast Charging Battery, supporting ultra-high-rate charging equivalent to 10C and peaking at 15C. Specifically, charging from 10% to 35% takes just 1 minute, and from 10% to 98% takes only 6 minutes and 27 seconds; in an extremely cold environment of -30°C, charging from 20% to 98% also takes only 9 minutes, comprehensively surpassing the flash charging technology previously released by BYD on March 5, which achieved charging from 10% to 97% in 9 minutes. More notably, the Shenxing battery does not exclusively possess this charging speed; the Kirin battery and Xiaoyao battery will also be fully equipped with this performance as standard in the future.
