If the peak current draw were 350kW then I'd agree the specs were fine.
I'd thought they were advertising a 10% to 80% charge because that's the period over which they can charge at max speed? Looking now, it seems like they start tapering at 50%, and it's peak draw is 235kW? https://www.arenaev.com/kia_ev6_crowned_the_best_charging_ev...
(I agree this is very good, but it's still wrong to quote 350kW if they never draw this much.)
