150kW or so is the max right now in other cars at 400V. The Taycan (and the upcoming Ionic 5 and others) can take over 200kW but only at 800V. Honestly it is not as big a deal as it sounds like, since even Teslas can only take the 250kW for a relatively brief period (and older Model S's cant even take over 100kW sometimes now). So the average kW per session will not be as different as it looks from the max number (unless we are talking about something super slow like a Bolt). I would love the Tesla plug to be the NA standard, but I doubt it will happen at this point (and that is probably mostly Tesla's fault by being the typical Tesla control freaks). CCS is such a bloated and inelegant standard (both physically and electrically) but we are probably stuck with it.
