One huge thing that government must do to get more people buying #EVs is to get more charging points installed. That includes on-street chargers outside homes with no driveways, and many more public charging places

BYD is building a jaw-dropping 50 sq mile EV megacity in Zhengzhou—larger than San Francisco. It’s not just a factory; it’s a self-contained metropolis with homes, soccer fields, and 80,000 workers. A staggering display of scale, speed, and ambition in China’s EV takeover plan. #EVs #BEV #BYD

BYD is building something the world has never seen before—a colossal EV megacity in Zhengzhou, China, that spans an incredible 50 square miles, making it larger than the entire city of San Francisco. This isn’t just a factory—it’s a self-contained industrial metropolis. Once completed, it will be capable of producing over one million electric vehicles annually, putting even the world’s largest automotive facilities to shame. But what makes this project truly jaw-dropping is not just its production capacity—it’s the vision. BYD is creating a fully integrated ecosystem where work, life, and recreation coexist. The site includes high-rise residential buildings for its employees, soccer fields, tennis courts, and a wide range of amenities to support a vibrant community. Think of it as a futuristic company town—but on a scale that feels almost science fiction. Currently employing around 60,000 workers, BYD plans to grow that number to 80,000, turning this facility into a small city in its own right. The complex is being developed in eight phases, with the final stages now underway. Once operational, it will supercharge BYD’s already formidable position in the global EV race. This is China’s EV strategy in action: scale, speed, and state support, all rolled into one. While Western automakers struggle with transition timelines, BYD is out there building an empire—one electric car, one megafactory, one megacity at a time.

Sorry, but China EV manufacturer BYD just kicked Tesla’s ass around the block and then some.

They aren’t even in the same game.

Active magnetic suspension, 4-motor drive 1300hp, independent turning on every wheel. It can literally climb stairs, u-turn in place on a narrow road & shift itself sideways to park.

I would totally drive this beast if I could afford it. I don’t give AF that it’s chinese. Amazing tech. 😲
