I recently got a 2025 Kia Niro Wind and it's top charging speed is 85kW. Nowhere near top speeds, but it was more then enough during a recent road trip. I hadn't factored the speed in my research (was still learning at the time), but honestly now that I know more it still wouldn't be something I consider.
How long does it take you for 10 - 80% at that speed?
No idea, haven't had a need to try yet. I'm generally charging on a level 2 charger at home, and during the trip we'd charge in 20-30% chunks as needed
