The 600 kW charging hub, built by Ejoin, unexpectedly revealed the Cybertruck's hidden potential.
This charging rate translates to an impressive 1,659 kilometers of range added per hour.
Tesla never advertised the Cybertruck could reach such high charging speeds - so how did this happen?
The Cybertruck started charging at just 7% battery level, reaching its peak power in the initial phase.
Even at 99% charge, the Cybertruck was still drawing 32 kW from the station - an unprecedented feat.
The test results suggest the Cybertruck's batteries might be more powerful than previously thought.
How does this compare to other EVs? The current overall record is held by a Chinese electric minivan.
What do these surprising results mean for the future of electric vehicle charging technology?
