Quite right. The small graph in the article confirms it. If you zoom in enough you can see the power and torque are more than doubled during the 20second burst mode, but even so it is very impressive

I think Tesla cars also have a similar "burst" mode too?

Some turbocharged combustion engines also have something called overboost, allowing short periods of operation at higher power than the "continuous" limit (again due to heat build-up)
