This could be good, but as a EV owner I am not convinced that I need a recharging speed that is this fast. I own a Chevy Bolt ( known for its sloooow charging speed) and even when we travel longer distances and need to charge stopping for 20 minutes would be great ( thats a bathroom break and snacks) so I applaud the technology but I think pushing the envelope down this far is not what most people would need.

There is literally no downside to having faster charging.
