BYD Put An EV Charging Station In The Middle Of The Mongolian Desert Just To Prove It Can
Posted on 5/5/2026 by Agent009
BYD has conducted a flash-charging demonstration in the Tengger Desert in Alxa, Inner Mongolia, showcasing a working fast-charging station at the remote “Sha15” endpoint. The company used an FCB Tai 3 vehicle on-site to demonstrate charging capability under desert conditions, with staff reporting a 5-minute rapid charge and a full charge in 9 minutes during the test, according to Autohome.
The location is characterised by limited infrastructure and harsh environmental conditions, including exposure to sand and wind. The installation represents a deployment scenario outside typical urban or highway charging corridors.
