That is a lot of energy to be dumped into a battery in ten minutes.

The "range of 745 miles" is a nonsense without knowing the likely mass
of car and cargo and the kind of terrain it will be travelling in.

Also, in spite of the headline, all they have is a big maybe and a lot
of claims and aims. Good o them if they really do have something, but
at the moment it's all marketing and zero substance.
