Also interesting to note is that 11/13 of the fastest cars are 800V.

    Forgive my relative ignorance here but doesn’t lucid use a fair few more cells to get the high range numbers for their cars? So wouldn’t they just have MORE cells to charge? Wouldn’t that make sense that they have a longer charge time going by percentage?

      If they were limited by the charger (which they are not here) then yes it would take longer to go from 10 - 80 %. If that’s not the case then on the cell level it’s the same as the competition as you can see here.
      In theory their large number of cells should help them on a range gained per minute basis but the mediocre cells and the methodology employed here seems to negate that.
