The route stretches from Italy to Hong Kong, covering approximately 9,300 miles with a target completion time of 43 days. Leading the journey is the Denza Z9 GT, a shooting-brake-style EV from BYD’s premium brand. What makes the campaign particularly interesting is that the Z9 GT pairs a substantial driving range with the ability to charge from 10% to 97% in just nine minutes.

I have a friend whose apartment's garage charger was installed and metered by a company that went bankrupt. Luckily, it fails gracefully by still providing electrical charge, without running a transaction on his credit card registered to a now-defunct service. Problem is that it still uses the apartment building's main electricity, so all the building's EV owners are nervous that one day the big corporate landlord is just gonna disconnect it when they eventually realize how much extra it costs on the landlord's monthly electricity bill.
