The most eye-stealing highlight is the Flash Charging technology, which works in conjunction with the latest Blade Battery 2.0.

– Charging from 10% to 70% takes only 5 minutes.
– To charge to 97%, it only takes 9 minutes.
– Even in temperatures as low as -30°C, it can still be fast-charged in 12 minutes.

I assume OP meant undisclosed spying. Everything else would be up to local legislation, and that's probably not great anywhere tbh

I can't find their actual terms and conditions, but BYD's privacy-washing page says they're compliant to the GDPR and the EU Guidelines on Personal Data Protection in Connected Vehicles, whatever good that does

Well, it's technically disclosed in fine print I'm sure, but hardly anybody is aware of the level of snooping their car is actually doing. There is no need or room for undisclosed spying, it is already spying on pretty much everything you do inside it or on phones connected to it, in the US anyway. I don't know how much better protections are in the EU either.
