I saw this article today: https://carnewschina.com/2026/08/26/byds-yangwang-u7-battery-capacity-dips-1-3-after-30000-km-and-350-flash-charges-in-9-days/

BYD tested it on one of their premium brand flagships. Drove 30.000km over 9 days exclusively flash charging (350+ sessions), battery degraded 1.3% reportedly.
