While reading that, I had many of the same head-scratching questions some of you posted. A lot of it just doesn't add up if the 10-80% times haven't also improved.
If the improvement is because they're seeing better miles/kWh drive efficiency, then that would apply to range as well. But no mention of range increase which would surely be the lead headline.
If it's because the charge curve has improved (i.e. they're able to keep it at 150 kW max longer than originally expected), it makes no sense that they would then slow it down even more later in the SOC than originally planned (offsetting those gains).
I almost get the feeling they just forgot to update the original "10-80% in 45 minutes" info to reflect a better charging curve.
