    You’re exactly correct.

    The 800 volt architecture of the vehicle coupled with a high output charger (Electrify America has a bunch) gets you a nearly full charge in 22 minutes.

    Not to mention that driving it is an absolute blast, and it’s built very well.

      I don’t understand why everyone keeps praising the 800V architecture for the charging time when Tesla has been doing 250kw charging for 5+ years now without 800V. Genuine question.

          They only do it on the 3 and Y, AND they will not actually confirm it. You can ask, but since Muskrat fired the PR dept, you’ll get a hilarious poop emoji as a response - so clever.

          Porsche didn’t do it exclusively for charging times - they did it because it uses less copper, hence, less weight, because racecar.

            Yeah, only on their highest volume, best selling cars 🤣

            because racecar.

            your $200k PTS metallic grocery getter sedan is not a racecar dude

        The high output one we have in Chattanooga (ooltewah) was always solid for me when I was at the dealership, but that may not be the case now.
