Purdue Researchers Develop Five-Minute EV Charger
Engineers working at Purdue University say they have come up with a game-changing technology that could revolutionize electric vehicle (“EV”) charging. Presently, EVs take longer to charge compared to refueling a conventional gas-powered car. Tesla Superchargers are currently the fastest EV chargers on the market, and they take around 30 minutes to an hour to charge a battery to 80%. With funding from Ford, engineers have invented a new charging cable that could speed up charging time to only five minutes. If this technology reaches mass production, it could make EV charging as quick and efficient as fueling a gas…
