Can modern EVs really fast charge in only 8-10 minutes? I thought we where still talking on the order of 30+ minutes.



A Tesla with under half a charge charges at a rate of 1000km of range per hour at a Supercharger. So 10 minutes of charging is definitely not a full charge but it is often a useful charge.

Taking a Tesla Model 3 for example, I typically get a 15-20 minute stop every 2-3 hours (standard or long range trim).
