The problem isnt the cable.
The latest superchargers are ~250kw dc. Lets even say your battery is 120kwh and you're charging 20-100% to maximize kw. Afterall if you're low or high in batteries it wont charge at 250kw. Thusly lets say we're charging 100kwh. It's simple math to see you'd charge it in roughly 25 minutes. Which is typically what people are seeing with their teslas.
If you want to charge faster say 5 minutes. At 500kw it'd be down to probably 15 minutes or so. At 1,000kw or 1MW you'd charge in around 5 minutes. We havent talked about battery chemistry and what have you. That's what we need.
