    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    That compares to DC fast charging stations from other companies, which have larger stall units and max out at 350kW.

    No vehicle in North America can accept power higher than 350kW, so Gravity is essentially future-proofing its setup.

    Gravity founder and CEO Moshe Cohen tells The Verge in an email that it’s looking to China in terms of where the technology is heading.

    However, small-stall DC chargers don’t run on magic, these systems have separate power units installed on-site in places that are less likely to compromise parking capacity.

    Sure, AC chargers often work fine if you’re sticking around for several hours, but it would be nice to have more fast-charging options inside cities for quicker trips.

    Gravity’s first 500kW charging deployment is opening in Midtown Manhattan this fall at a new flagship facility on West 42nd Street.
