Shenzhen-listed shares of BYD Group jumped by over 8% on Monday after the company announced that it will hold a \u201cdisruptive technology\u201d launch event on March 5.<\/p>\n

The stock closed 8.4% higher at 96.79 yuan, the largest single-day increase in a year \u2014 despite the 41% sales plunge reported on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Over the weekend, the company was spotted testing its megawatt-level flash charging network in Shenzhen. <\/p>\n

Previous leaks had revealed a 1,500 kW charging system and a dedicated Flash Charging app.<\/p>\n

A video shared by X user \u2018XueJia24682,\u2019 showed the charger adding about 2 km (1.2 miles) of range per second, with the user mentioning that it can provide 400 km of range [248.5 miles] in just 5 minutes.<\/p>\n

This fueled speculation among several auto bloggers on Weibo that the upcoming event would focus on the charging infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The company announced the event through WeChat without providing any additional details.<\/p>\n

The company sold 187,783 passenger vehicles last month, which also represented an 8.6% drop from January.<\/p>\n

While exports grew 50%, domestic sales more than halved in February.<\/p>\n

\"visualization\"\/<\/p>\n

Reduced incentives in January left the auto industry weaker than expected, and disruptions from a longer-than-usual Chinese New Year holiday led February to be forecasted as the year\u2019s weakest month.<\/p>\n

China\u2019s Passenger Car Association (CPCA) had\u00a0warned\u00a0that February would see \u201cthe year\u2019s absolute trough,\u201d as the nine-day holiday left only 16 working days last month.<\/p>\n

These numbers mark BYD\u2019s weakest month in 2 years, and the sixth consecutive…<\/p>\n
