True, I left out that part. :)

TBH, I'm really looking forward to seeing the Tesla tested on 800V CCS chargers via the adapter. It seems like it is at least possible that it might charge faster on those than on the current 400V superchargers.

Of course, that would change if Tesla starts enabling 800V support on V3/V4.



In the Top Gear interview they confirmed the truck can do 350kW charging on a V4 charger, 15-85% in 18-20 minutes.

Yeah, I saw that, but tbh, I'm taking it with a grain of salt at this point. We've already seen one screenshot of the charge rate at ~70% and it wasn't great. It was showing ~10 minutes remaining to get to 80% too. That was on a slower charger, but the charge rate was less than 80 KW.

Considering how bad the 4680 Model Y was, I'm not optimistic.
