a car with 260kwh pack weighing 1.7 tons would charge at 300kw from 10% to 80% in 20 min and give 800km mileage. A car with two 300 kw plugs would charge in 10 minutes instead

I'll wait until first release to make sure it's bug free....like CATCHING ON FIRE!

('cause unstable battery)

Why does it matter if it charges from 10 to 80% in 20mins? Seems a bit arbitrary. Why not give us the time to charge to 100%? Does the last 20% take longer or something?
