the charging station just got a fast lane that outruns the pump. geely launched its smart charging system on september 23 with a single-gun peak of 2,250 kilowatts, taking a battery from 10 to 70 percent in four and a half minutes through an ai energy model that predicts temperature thirty seconds ahead, while western fast chargers still top out near 400 kilowatts.
the bottleneck is no longer the charger.
Context
Verified source: Geely's Sep 23, 2026 release introduces Geely Smart Charging with a fifth-generation charging station of up to 2,250 kW peak power. In real-world tests a Lynk & Co 10 and a Zeekr 001 charged from 10% to 70% in 4 minutes 30 seconds and 10% to 97% in 8 minutes 40 seconds, per Geely. CnEVPost (Sep 23) reports the same.
The Sep 23 launch, 2,250 kW and 10 to 70% in 4 minutes 30 seconds match Geely's release, and those results are the company's own real-world tests. That the AI model predicts temperature thirty seconds ahead and that western fast chargers top out near 400 kW were not seen in the sources read, so unsupported here, not refuted. in the excerpts read. 'The bottleneck is no longer the charger' is the author's opinion.
