you are lucky, that speed is atypical, especially at that SOC.
I have never seen anything close to that here in the US

In earlier posts i had 268 kw and once even more. And even at SOC 47% there was a bug and you could charge up to 290 kwh, with brake pedal pushed in. Even Porsche didn’t know. It’s a build in margin.

268 kW is the fastest I've ever seen personally

Nice! Best I've seen here is about 250kw. If anything, sometimes I feel the Taycan charges too fast that I need to run back to the car and unplug 😅

Charging is clearly the Taycan‘s biggest WEAKNESS.
I plugged the car in, ran to the service station, took a leak, had to wait in line to order a coffee and a croissant. Ate the croissant, and before I could take one sip of coffee, the car urged me to Unplug.
Let a man have his breakfast on a Saturday morning, for Pete’s sake…

On a serious note. From 8 to 71% in 15 minutes (including the 30 odd seconds it took for the Aral Pulse to get going) is just perfection. No car will ever need to charge faster than that.

Great charging speed, but please clean that screen :)

Feb 24, Gainesville Fl, got 268Kw, Barrett Place Kennesaw got 260Kw. Took all the advice on this forum arriving with 10% or less SOC, worst we got was a 170Kw or higher. Did find many EA Chargers were not putting out listed Kw, with complaints from other people charging at some places.

Where you charging today in Aalter?
Looking back over my trip photos – looks like I too have charged at FastNed in Aalter and comfortably got over 260 kW.

Of course, in my case, with the DC port on the other side of the Taycan.

Costly though – compared to IONITY – when not on a FastNed membership plan.
