Almost every electric car sold today can charge at a rate of at least 50 kW, while many operate at 100 kW or more, and some are even capable of over 300 kW. Plug into an equally powerful charger (the most powerful public chargers currently work at up to 350 kW), and your battery will fill up far more quickly than when using a less powerful charger.
