Elektromobilität: Das sind die Tiefpreisler unter den Starkstromern
800 Volt laden schneller, fahren weiter – und galten lange als Privileg teurer Autos. Fünf Modelle zeigen, dass die Technik inzwischen auch unter 50.000 Euro zu haben ist.
The German market for electric cars is increasingly divided into two categories: traditional 400-volt vehicles and more powerful 800-volt models. While the latter are technically superior, they are also more expensive. They offer faster charging and higher driving power over longer distances, which is beneficial for frequent highway travelers.
However, they come with higher purchase prices. Nonetheless, there are now some 800-volt models that offer significantly lower prices, even below the 50,000-euro mark. Leading the pack of these budget-friendly 800-volt vehicles is the China-based BYD with the Atto 3 Evo. This may come as a surprise, as the Atto 3 has traditionally operated on a modest 400-volt system.
However, a technical upgrade in the spring changed that. The Evo version of the BYD Atto 3 features 800-volt technology, making it a top-performing fast charger with impressive driving capabilities. It can deliver up to 220 kW to the Hypercharger, quickly charging its 75 kWh battery from 10 to 80 percent in about 25 minutes.
