MAY, 2023: The Lucid Air is measured as the fastest charging vehicle at 20 miles per minute. , there isn’t a mandated way to measure it. So a key, long-term variable for adoption of the technology is being sold like snake oil.and found the following five fastest-charging vehicles:3) the Porsche Taycan at 15.5 MPM,Mandate a window-sticker test and practice akin to fuel efficiency reporting....

“We grow our talent, but the industry, in general, has a very hard time finding experts,” states Kish. “To quote a customer of mine, ‘It doesn’t matter how much money you have, the Battery War will be won by the Talent War for battery experts.’” This is not just true of the European or North American gigafactories importing specialists from Asia, but also for the design activities attempting to compare solutions.
Therein, my strong suggestion: don’t scrimp right now. The way you treat your battery-management architects will also architect your future.
