I don't know of a single car that you can buy that takes 350kW. In fact I don't know of a single car that you can buy that charges at higher rates than the Teslas. And you keep doubling down on charging rates as if that was the single metric by which to compare manufacturers and conveniently ignore all the other stuff I've pointed out.

Then they'll sell you an Audi e-tron GT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMEdiq2xTbQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMEdiq2xTbQ And then they'll sell you a Porsche Macan: https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/porsche-macan-electric-only-official/ https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/porsche-macan-electric-on... Better planning, bigger scale. Meanwhile Tesla is still losing money. They were down $1 billion in 2018: https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1121240_tesla-turned-profit-at-the-end-of-2018-ends-year-down-model-y-coming-by-end-of-2020 https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1121240_tesla-turned-pr... When will Tesla's technology be profitable? The closure of the retail stores doesn't inspire confidence.

- lorenzorhoades 8y agoyou can make a 1000KWH car, and still be much less efficient than a 250KWH car. Range and speed is what matters not KWH. Aerodynamic, efficiency of enerygy conversion, etc.. comes into play.
