Level 3/DC Fast-Charger: Uses 400- or 800-volt DC electricity to charge with output ranging from 50 to 350 kilowatts. Can charge an EV's battery from 10 to 90 percent in as little as a half-hour.
A 350 kW DC fast charger — roughly equivalent to 800 volts, the fastest level of DC charging widely available in the United States or Europe — delivered 37 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity ...
This makes them unable to charge at their peak DC fast-charge rates at Tesla's 500-volt Superchargers, whereas fast-chargers elsewhere in the public charging infrastructure, such as Electrify ...
The first specification of this time reached a maximum of 125 A with up to 500 V. The typical Chademo charging stations allowing for 50 kW direct current became the basis for the term fast charging. When the Nissan Leaf came around in 2010, having a range of up to 160 km (100 miles), the concept of an actual fast charging networks was developed.
The main alternative technology to the battery switching technique promoted by Better Place is DC fast charging. A nationwide fast charging infrastructure is/was being deployed in the United States that by 2013 would cover the entire nation. [77] DC Fast Chargers are going to be installed at 45 BP and ARCO locations and will be made available ...

J.D. Power’s latest survey found satisfaction with DC fast charging availability rose by 20 points year over year (from 673 to 693), though the much more prevalent and less powerful Level 2 ...
Commonly, though incorrectly, called "Level 3" charging based on the older NEC-1999 definition, DC charging is categorized separately in the SAE standard. In DC fast-charging, grid AC power is passed through an AC-to-DC converter in the station before reaching the vehicle's battery, bypassing any AC-to-DC converter on board the vehicle. [8] [9]
