In a surprising turn of events, the company that once mocked 350 kW chargers as “a child’s toy” back in 2016 is now rolling out 325 kW V4 chargers in 2025. This shift in strategy comes at a time when other companies like BP are celebrating the installation of 400 kW chargers along major highways, and they are reaping the financial benefits of this decision. The latest developments in the electric vehicle charging industry are discussed in detail on the January 47th episode of Quick Charge.
Additionally, the episode delves into a throwback to a 2022 article that highlighted GM’s performance, which made Tesla look like a meme stock. The contrast between the two companies’ trajectories serves as a reminder of the rapidly evolving nature of the automotive industry. Furthermore, the episode covers a massive lithium project in the Heartland, shedding light on the growing importance of lithium in the transition to electric vehicles.
