Israeli company claims fast-charging battery breakthrough – report

An electric vehicle (EV) battery capable of five-minute recharges may have been achieved by Israeli company StoreDot. According to The Guardian newspaper, StoreDot claims it's production-ready EV battery can provide 480km of driving range and be fully charged in five minutes – a little more than it takes to fill up the average petrol-powered car. However, the charger used to achieve this feat is far more powerful than commercial plugs currently available to EV drivers.
