  1. I never mentioned Tesla Superchargers, they are proprietary. Any EV Supercharger that charges faster than what you can get installed at home will degrade your battery much faster.
  2. Toyota bZ4X & Subaru Solterra
  3. I don't dispute that some brands handle it better. I just know that Toyota, Subaru, Kia, Hyundai, Chevy, and Ford recommend that you stick to slow charging for longevity.

Have you ever heard that your phone battery degrades more the faster you charge it? Did you know these EV vehicles are affected the same way? Every time you use a Supercharger at a grocery store, you are rapidly degrading your battery. L

And no this isn't anti-ev propaganda. This comes directly from my Subaru/Toyota EV training. I was trained to tell my customers to limit the amount of Supercharger uses. So while it's awesome that we can charge a car this fast, please don't think that there isn't a drawback.
