Two EVs Charge Faster Than the Rest. But One Is Clearly Better

  • The 2025 Porsche Taycan and the 2026 Lucid Gravity are considered America's fast-charging kings in the EV market.
  • The Lucid Gravity can theoretically accept up to 400 kW of peak charging power, while the Taycan is rated at up to 320 kW.
  • In a head-to-head test, the Gravity started pulling charging speeds faster than the Taycan.
  • Factors like the individual car's battery size, starting charge level, charger speed, and weather affect the charging time of EVs.
  • Both vehicles can charge to 80% in under half an hour from empty, showing impressive charging capabilities.
  • The Gravity outperformed the Taycan in terms of energy dispensed, providing more driving range for the same charging duration.
  • The Taycan took 53 minutes to reach 100%, while the Gravity took 74 minutes, showing differences in charging efficiency.
  • Despite using a 350 kW charger, the Gravity's true potential with a 400 kW charger hints at even faster charging capabilities.
  • The Gravity emerged as the clear winner in terms of time taken to add actual driving range, showcasing its fast-charging efficiency.
  • The Lucid Gravity is currently considered America's fast-charging champion, surpassing the Taycan in overall charging performance.
