On the Taycan forum [0] a few people were working the math out and figured out a theoretical 2:30 charge route. It requires 55MPH cruise and a few other things, but doesn't seem that out of the realm of possibility for a manufacturer backed PR stunt.
The one that I saw that worked it out said this: "Here’s a scenario that abrp says would cost 2:30 in charging:
- max speed set to 55mph (yawn)
- efficiency 200 Wh/mi @65mph
- charging stops set for Shortest Legs
- start with 100%"
Notably, 200 wh/mi is at least 20% too optimistic. OTOH, ABRP seems to underestimate the charge KW rate a little bit, but it doesn't seem to be enough.
They should publish the details for public examination. It seems like this comes with some important asterisks.
