    Damn does the whole block brown out when you plug it in?

    My Bolt gets , simplify, 400 km on 60 kW or 15.0 kw/100 km efficiency. It can charge at 30-50 KWH from a big old DC fast charge station in 1.5 hours or so.

    This thing gets 1200km, equivalent to 180 kW, in 10 minutes? Is it charging at 900kwh or is it operating on the road at 5kw/100km or something in between? Either way I’ll believe it when I see it. As far as I know 360kwh or so is the max right now.

      kW is the rate, kWh is the amount of energy. You’ve swapped them and it’s giving me a stroke to read lol

          I’m well aware, was just using terms that would be familiar for someone who swapped them already lol
