I'm concerned at what Ford has done by limiting the DCFC to 150kW. EA stations are 250kw. I know the curve of the charging cycle and they don't stay at the high end very long. However the extended range battery at 131 kW could really benefit from that 250kW for several minutes.
The 150kW time from 15% to 80% is estimated at 41 minutes at the max 150kW charger. I believe this is a big oversight not allowing up to 250kW charging.
I know that the vast majority of us will do most of our charging at home in the garage, but when you do want to hit the road, you don't want to spend your time sitting at the chargers.
Tesla just announced today that their v3 250kW chargers can be bumped to 325kW or more and v4 of the SC could be on its way soon. The truck limited to 150kW seems like one of the bigger oversights they have.
