    If Telsa makes its cars on its own, without Chinese partners, it's not because it gets special treatment or that Elon Musk is smarter than others.

      You don't seem to understand how this works, the wall socket is the limit to charging speed, a Tesla will charge at 250kW from a suitable charger, you just can't do that sort of charging at home. The Chinese EV won't charge any faster at home because your wall socket is limited to 10A or whatever it is.

    It's not the voltage holding back charging, it's the battery's ability to take take energy without catching on fire or shortening its life. It's not healthy to charge a pack like this fast. Fast charging can occur at 3c safely if the heat can be dissipated -- quite possible with tesla's 4680. 1C is safe / easy. Faster than that starts to degrade cells / create excess heat. It's not a voltage problem --- it's just the nature of the battery.

    Mercedes EVA is only 400 V. I was surprised as well, but they can still get a decent charging speed out of it even on 400V.
    I think Porsche/Audi 800V architecture is capable of 350kw charing. That was the original plan. It is likely they are playing safe with the batteries. They want to see these Taycans in 10-15 years in the future out and in good shape. And this I respect in these companies.
    It is also possible GAC has a newer battery tech , which does not have a problem with high C values now. And now maybe Dongfeng too.
    GM Ultium will have a 400V architecture for passenger vehicles and 800V for trucks, although these are only the plans. They may change their minds and put 800V into all vehicles in the end.
    I don't think it says "combined" in what you read, but if it does it can mean "combining the front and read motors".

    This Chinese car is exciting due to the fast charging though. It’s the only way people are going to switch to EV. But the charging infrastructure is not there now in the United States. And even if they build thousands of high power chargers windmills and solar can’t supply enough juice. New technology nuclear must be looked at if we want to get to even 65% EV use.
