When it’s time to stop, the Strike can absorb Level 3 juice at up to 120 kilowatts. In the video, the Strike adds 12 kWh of power in just under 11 minutes on a typical DC fast charger. Yet the bike still slurps juice nearly four times faster than the Harley’s 3.3-kilowatt

And battery bulk alone, especially in monstrously powerful trucks, can be a short route to a relatively inefficient and prohibitively expensive EV. The 800-volt architecture doubles Tesla’s 400 V, matches the six-figure Porsche Taycan, and is within sight of the Lucid’s industry-leading 900 V.

F1 doesn’t flatter the battery brigade.
