800v cars can charge to 80% capacity in ~20 minutes on fast chargers, and that's for well over 300 miles of range.

However: EVs don't fix the problems inherent with high rates of individual car ownership in high population density areas, or with low occupancy vehicle, short distance travel.

There are only two cars that make 300 miles at highway speed. Lucid Air and Tesla S Long Range Plus. Tesla is still at old 400V system.

The Aptera will do over 300 miles at highway speed, probably over 600: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpiH-Y-HOvE

Who drives 500km on a highway in a luxury vehicle without allowing them to take a little break? Do they pee in a bottle too?

Do you have to pee every 3 hours?
