Let me guess is it because BYD is making cars targeted at actual consumers and not luxury vehicles for the top 10%.

Perhaps it's because marketing bullshit.

Outside of the hype machine, do the heavily EV-adopting nordic countries have 5 minute chargers? Oops, no, they don't. OK.

It's just hype. I hope it becomes an actual thing at some point.
