Also interesting to note is that 11/13 of the fastest cars are 800V.
I am surprised that the 900V Lucid is so far down. Is it a throttling problem due to heat? I know that has been a problem for Rivian.
Lucid charge curve alone isn’t actually that good
For example, in terms of C rate, a Model S charges faster than it, Taycan and similar much more
It’s just that it’s efficient and has a huge pack
Take a look at the C rate chart here, in terms of pushing cells, Model S/X push them harder

It really falls off fast from the peak KW
Miles per hour of charging doesn’t seem very indicative of roadtrip pace (sitting for hours is really the slowest way to travel). Seems like it would tell you which vehicle has a flatter charging curve but that doesn’t necessarily correlate to great 15min top-ups. It’ll be nice when publications like Edmund’s actually have experience with EVs, they might start using something like the Out Of Spec 10% challenge .
