Wow, what a POS as far as charging goes. That's just totally un-ownable. It took 4.4 hours to go from 0-99%, that's ridonkulous!

If the bZ4x rapid-gates (retards fast charging when the battery is too hot) at all, I could probably beat it in a 1000km challenge in my 2012 RAV4 EV with JdeMO aftermarket CHAdeMO. Mine can take 45kW to 80% all day long. However, if the bZ4x can maintain that charging curve posted upthread after repeated charging stops, then staying in the lower 50% of the battery would be faster than my car.
 
Folks have been picking up this EV this week in CA so folks will be reporting real world daily charging. The 80+% DC charging curve looks useless in the real world. 7000 available this year.

A boatload of Solterras also arrived in the Bay Area - probably destined to dealers as demo units (I recall my Subaru dealer saying they would get a demo in June). 6500 available this year.
