Exactly. So all of this discussion about whether or not the car was in park or if the parking brakes was set is moot. The car was in reverse and drove into the bench under power.

So I thought you said it was uphill into the bench that it hit.

The problem is fully autonomous driving which the Bolt has full hardware which is just not yet unlocked. The Tesla will already back itself out of the garage with no key if you call for it.

Look at the high voltage cut off voltage divided by he number of series cells and compare to any similar chemistry cell spec sheet to see about how high they are taking the charge.

So then at that point an 800V car could charge much faster. But there are no 800V cars.

200 kw into a car is 500 Amps. You will need two 25mm diameter cables to carry it. And liquid cooling. And a strong man to cary the cable over to plug it in for you. The only way to go signifcantly higher will be to increase the batery system voltage to 800V and have an automated solid bus bar...

200kW charging is an immense amount of power and would require a complete redesign of the charge cable and port to include liquid cooling. Charging a Bolt at 3.5 times the capacity very often could really shorten the cycle life of the battery.
