A Porsche Taycan drove from Los Angeles to New York City in record time — at least in terms of charging the EV.
On Friday,cerita lucah batrisya the German carmaker announced it broke the Guinness World Record for shortest charging time to drive across the U.S. in its $87,030 battery-powered car: 2 hours, 26 minutes, and 48 seconds.
Last year, Kia set the record (and grabbed it from Tesla) with a 7 hour, 10 minute, and 1 second charging time while making the 2,834-mile journey in its soon-to-be-released EV6. As recently as this week, Kia had been touting its now-defeated fast-charging achievement.
Now the title belongs to the Taycan, Porsche's first EV, which used Electrify America's ultra-fast chargers across the U.S. on the cross-country trek. Those 350 kW chargers (sometimes referred to as Level 3 charging) can take the car from empty to an 80 percent charge in under 25 minutes. Slower Level 2 charging, which is the more common charging speed available at public charging stations, can take more than six hours to fully charge an EV. Not all EVs can handle fast-charging, but clearly it's not a problem for the EV6 and Taycan.
Porsche didn't just break Kia's record... it shattered it.
