On today’s exciting episode of Quick Charge, Tesla’s redesigned Model Y is grabbing headlines, but the solar Cybertruck might be the thing for you. We’ve also got news from BYD, and an innovative new energy storage system in California.
BYD is rolling out a new, monstrously powerful sport sedan in the Chinese market that’s set to challenge the Tesla Model S Plain – but that’s not all. The Chinese upstart also beat Toyota in EV sales in its Japanese home market, up 54% year over year while Toyota’s EV sales were down nearly 30%.
