Level 3/DC Fast Charging: This is the fastest method available for charging an electric car. Think of it as using a fire hose to fill a barrel quickly.
- High Power Delivery: DC fast chargers pump a substantial amount of DC power into the car's battery.
- Reduced Charging Time: This rapid power transfer significantly cuts down the time needed to add a considerable range to the vehicle.
