A 92-kilowatt-hour battery and a 130-kilowatt generator combine to bring the juice. Yes, an internal combustion engine. Ram says customers can gain 50 miles of range in 10 minutes via 400-volt DC fast charging at up to 145 kW. The charge port will offer Level 1 and 2 AC charging on the top and DC fast charging on the bottom.

That SuperBike topped every internal combustion engine motorcycle en route to a Pikes Peak International Hill Climb win in 2013, on the Colorado gantlet that’s among the world’s highest-profile tech challenges for cars and motorcycles alike. When it’s time to stop, the Strike can absorb Level 3 juice at up to 120 kilowatts.

If your EV has 300 miles of range when fully juiced up, it can go about 240 miles with an 80% state of charge. There may be huge distances between DC fast chargers, and you need every range you can get. When it’s time to charge, it’s often wiser to stop at 80% and then get back on the road instead of waiting for the battery to fill up.

That lets the Hyundai and Kia slurp electrons at up to a 270-kilowatt rate, when plugged into a 350-kW DC charger. Between bitter ambient temperatures and some snafus, that charger was pushing juice at a sharply reduced, roughly 45-kW rate—exactly one-sixth the Hyundai’s maximum 270-kW rate.

Battling a non-compliant DC charger somewhere in rural France This means any public charger I want to use, I’ll need to register with each individual company.

kWh battery pack (83 kWh usable) that can reach charge rates up to 270 kW on a DC fast charger, recouping 100km (62 miles) in 5 minutes and replenishing from a 20-80% state of charge in 18 minutes. It could go faster if the engineers allow it. seconds but loses some juice down the straightaway, going 0-200 km/h in 9.1

Its cofounders, Mitch Lee and Ryan Cook, are engineers who met while working at Boeing. An electric motor is also easier to put where you want it, so there doesn’t need to be a big, loud, hot, vibrating mass in the middle of the boat (where engines often go), making it easier to use that space for socializing or moving around inside the boat.
