I do not know, as I have not done the complete math myself.
But the article translates 90miles/30minutes into 145km/30minutes, and with 50kW charging - flat charing curve with 50kW the hole time - that is 25kWh. 25kWh for 145km is about 172Wh/km. And I have heard about Model S's with lower consumption then that (summertime, nice temperatures, no AC or heat, low speed on rural roads and (almost) same level). So it might be doable still? If it has a flat charging curve (and was this not specified "from low"? Where it does the charing at the fastest rate?).
Going the other way, assuming a consumption of 150Wh/km gives 21,7kWh for 145km, and that is under an average of 50kW charging in 30minutes.
So he may have to redo his math? Maybe?
The EPA data says 28 kWh for 100 miles.
It is wrong to assume a charging curve is flat for 30 minute straight, but if it is, it will still be slightly short at a "50kW" nameplate charger.
My theory is that GM knows what charging is out there in December 2016. It peaks out at 62.5 kWh. I believe that is what it will take.
I could be wrong. We will see.
