To be honest, it’s not really a hill I’m willing to die on. Tesla have the largest fast charge network in Europe. It averages an output of between 150-250 KW. The next fastest network maxes out at 150 KW. Yes, there’s bound to be faster chargers available, but we’re talking about tech for the masses.

Just because I can put my personal feelings about Musk aside to acknowledge the supercharger network doesn’t mean I like or endorse him or his businesses. What I want is for his businesses to all be made obsolete. If I have a horse in the race, it’s actually probably Lime Bikes, but in terms of cars, I’m hoping BYD, Kia and Hyundai can become mainstays. As for charger networks, I would like to see them move out of the hands of manufacturers and into the hands of the nations.
