China’s electric rocket

The BYD Yangwang U9 just smashed the speed charts: 472.41 km/h on track — new world record for production EVs. For context: • Bugatti Chiron SS 300+ — 490 km/h • SSC Tuatara — 474.8 km/h • Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut — 531 km/h (different beast altogether). The twist? This Chinese hypercar isn’t a $10M billionaire toy. Price tag: ~$210K. And it’s not vaporware — 149 buyers already own one. Sure, Venturi Bullet 3 hit 549 km/h, but try taking that to grab groceries. Won’t happen. 👑 Bottom line: U9 Track just crowned itself the EV speed king.
