    Assuming this is about the same thing as the other BYD charging article I saw a couple days ago, they’re using a higher voltage, which would let them charge faster without needing a thicker* cable.

    (* The copper need not be thicker, but the insulation might need to be)

      Exactly. More energy means either more copper or more rubber in the cable.
