screw 270 kW charging - honestly screw it -
what I’m impressed with is the Taycan’s ability to charge at north of 100 kW (close to 150 kW) deep into the 80% SOC…it was that way yesterday in Monterey at the newly opened EA charger @ 1212 Forest Ave, Pacific Grove....
a solid and sustained 150 kW from most any low SOC into the low 80% SOC - and then not dropping below 100 kW until after 92% SOC is a super fast charging session and way way way better than any of my 5 Tesla’s I’ve owned since 2013…
quit focusing on the marketing BS - the most impressive charging sessions I’ve seen is when the Taycan is cooking along at 150 kW and flat lines at that rate deep in to the 80% SOC range…world class.
and honestly good enough - I got 33% SOC to 93% SOC yestereday in 30 min flat, and had some tasty BBQ chicken for lunch while I charged from the place across the street.
the Taycan doesn’t honestly taper the charge rate until about 92% SOC - until that point it taking triple digit Kw’s - which is a lot of power in a very very short time.
