John Beltz Snyder of Autoblog posted an online article today (link) listing the fastest-charging electric vehicles of 2022. The Porsche Taycan is in 4th place behind two GMC Hummers and Lucid Air. Some surprises and not-so-surprises follow. Only vehicles capable of charging over 150 kW are listed.
GMC Hummer EV: 350 kW -- GMC claims the Hummer EV Edition 1 can add nearly 100 miles in 10 minutes.
GMC Hummer SUV: 300 kW -- GMC hasn’t provided an estimation for what that means in terms of miles or battery percentage in a given amount of time.
Lucid Air: 300 kW -- Lucid says that fast charging can add as much as 300 miles of range in 20 minutes.
Porsche Taycan and Audi E-Tron GT: 270 kW -- Porsche equates that to charging the battery from 5% to 80% in as little as 22.5 minutes.
Tesla Models S, X, Y, and 3: 250 kW -- Tesla says its cars can add up to 200 miles of range in 15 minutes of charging.
Genesis Electrified G80: 240 kW -- Genesis says the electric version of its G80 sedan can charge from 10% to 80% in 22 minutes with a battery temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit. Note that it has a bigger battery than the Hyundai Group’s E-GMP crossover trio (Genesis GV60, Kia EV6 and Hyundai Ioniq 5).
Genesis GV60: 235 kW -- Genesis says that the GV60 (which shares the E-GMP platform and 800-volt battery architecture with the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6, below) can charge from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes.
Kia EV6: 235 kW -- Like its cousins, the EV6 can charge from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes, Kia claims.
Hyundai Ioniq 5: 235 kW -- You guessed it: Hyundai says it can charge from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes.
Hyundai Ioniq 6: 235 kW -- This future stablemate of the Ioniq 5 also takes 18 minutes to recharge from 10% to 80%.
Rivian R1T: 220 kW -- Rivian says its electric truck can add up to 140 miles of range in 20 minutes.
Rivian R1S: 220 kW -- Like the pickup, this electric SUV claims to add up to 140 miles of range in 20 minutes.
BMW i4: 200 kW -- BMW says the i4 eDrive40 can reclaim up to 108 miles of range per 10 minutes of charging. The M50 gets 97 miles in the same amount of time.
Mercedes-Benz EQS: 200 kW -- That’ll take the EQS 450+ from 10% to 80% in 31 minutes. Not bad when you consider the battery offers 350 miles of range.
Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV: 200 kW -- Mercedes says this upcoming electric SUV will also do 10% to 80% in 31 minutes
BMW iX: 195 kW -- BMW claims the iX xDrive50 and M60 can recoup 90 miles of range in 10 minutes.
Cadillac Lyriq: 190 kW -- Cadillac claims that will add 76 miles of range in about 10 minutes of charging.
Mercedes-Benz EQE: 170 kW -- This upcoming EQE sedan will charge from 10% to 100% in 30 minutes.
Ford F-150 Lightning: 155 kW -- That will charge the extended-range pack from 15% to 80% in about 41 minutes, or 54 miles in 10 minutes. The standard-range battery is only capable of 120-kW charging, which equates to 15% to 80% in about 44 minutes, or 41 miles in 10 minutes.
Audi E-Tron: 150 kW -- Audi doesn’t state what that means in terms of charging time.
Ford Mustang Mach-E: 150 kW -- With rear-wheel drive and the extended-range battery, it’ll charge from 10% to 80% in 38 minutes.
Polestar 2: 150 kW -- Polestar claims a time of 30 minutes to get the battery from 10% to 80%
Toyota bZ4X: 150 kW -- That 150-kW figure is for the rear-wheel-drive model. The all-wheel-drive version is limited to 100 kW. Toyota doesn’t state what that means in terms of charging time.
Volvo C40 Recharge: 150 kW -- That’s 10% to 80% in about 35 minutes at a battery temperature of 95 degrees Fahrenheit.
Volvo XC40 Recharge: 150 kW -- Volvo says it can charge up to 80 percent in 40 minutes when fast charging.
