> Gridserve I'm only seeing a maximum charge rate of 60kW
No, Gridserve has 350 kW and 90 kW chargers in their new forecourts (see the videos). The 60 kW chargers you're seeing are from Gridserve's acquisition of Ecotricity:
> As an example, a 2022 Lucid Air Dream Edition can use 350kW chargers. Going 20% to 80% on a 350kW is 31 minutes
And that's a big battery with a conservative charge curve for its size. A Hyundai Ioniq 5 can do 10 to 80% in 18 minutes on a 350 kW charger. A Porsche Taycan and an Audi e-tron GT (same platform) can do 10 to 80% in 19 minutes:

And in a few years with newer battery chemistries more cars will be able to take more advantage of 350 kW chargers.
