This Nyobolt EV can charge its 35kWh battery in just six minutes

Design and engineering firm Callum, Automotive Designer Julian Thomson, and the perhaps lesser known ultra-fast charging battery developer Nyobolt have revealed the new Nyobolt EV.
As you can tell from the images above, the Nyobolt takes its design from the Lotus Elise S1, with its low-slung body and hunkered stance, as well as those rounded head lights and the use of a duck tail rear.
The Nyobolt EV sports a rigid composite roof panel can be unbolted and removed for open-top motoring The Nyobolt EV sits on 19-inch wheels and is said to measure 100mm wider and 150mm longer than its inspiration, so it should be a properly compact sports coupe by today's standards. Look closer and you'll note that it also sports "cooling intake" graphics at the front and rear, another nod to the Elise.
But what's really groundbreaking about the Nyobolt EV is what sits underneath this sleek exterior. With a total weight said to be close to a tonne, the Nyobolt EV carries on torch of the lightweight philosophy of the Elise.
What's completely different from the Elise, however, is the fact that it sports a 35kWh battery. This number alone is not particularly impressive, but Nyobolt states that it is enough to give the Nyobolt EV a range of 250km.
More impressive still, is the fact that this battery can be charged in just six minutes, and has been tested for over 2,000 fast charging cycles without significant performance loss. For some comparison, the MINI Electric sports a 32kWh battery, and can charge at 50kWh to hit 80% state-of-charge in 35 minutes.
Nyobolt states that this fast-charging technology is already ready-to-deploy, capable of immediate application and rapid scale-up. The firm has scheduled production to start as early as 2024.
