That's a lot of power being delivered. It's not necessarily the peak rate, but the footage does show the vehicle receiving 1,001.1 kW at 22% state-of-charge (SOC) with 1,242 amps at 806 volts. This is a major step towards electrifying semis since it doesn't seem like we're going towards swappable batteries as a lot of heavy duty electric vehicles in China are doing.

I think that's higher even than the Tesla Semi's "megacharger", which I had read is capable of 750kW. You need to do something with those giant batteries to fill them up in respectable time.
