> If you charge a battery with anything near the capacity necessary for 1200 km range within ten minutes, you will need at least a charger with 1000 kW (1 MW) output power.
Or you could just charge it at 500 kW for 20 minutes.
Chargers out perform the batteries at present. No current passenger EV can sustain 350 kW across the whole charge curve.
If Toyota's battery will sustain a flat 500 kW or even a flat 350 kW for most of the charge curve then that's a very good thing.
