Depends on C values, thermal limits, etc.
The single data point I have of 75k miles, once a week charging at 120kW from ~20% -> 60% shows very little degradation to the pack on our Model S.
Also, when it's warmer out I've seen warnings that in-cabin AC is lowered to divert to help cool the pack so I'm sure it's a question of thermals + number of parallel modules.
- tigershark 8y agoAccordingly to Musk the limit charge power for the Tesla in the future superchargers is around 200kw if I remember correctly.

- vvanders 8y agoThat's still a lot of DCFC(~20k miles based on 0.33kwH/mi) and even then it's limited down to 90kW from 120kW. FWIW you only see 120kW on the first ~35% of the pack and quickly tapers down to sub 100kW after that approaching home charging speeds for the last 80-100%.
- mikeash 8y agoI believe that turned out to only be for one particular revision of the battery pack.
