Reply to comment by 40for60 in A breakthrough in electric vehicle battery design has enabled a 10-minute charge time for a typical EV battery. The record-breaking combination of a shorter charge time and more energy acquired for longer travel range was announced today by Wagamaga

I think we are both saying the same thing, you are just getting more into the details. The faster chargers generate more heat which is what causes that loss in capacity. My statement was based on the SAE EV Engineering program which presented several studies showcasing number of cycles to 10% loss in capacity and when going from .5C to 1C the cycles went from 5000 to 200 cycles.
