Fastest was around 270kw from 10-30%. Even my Model 3 SR+ that's only capable of 150kw peak never spent more than 25min at a charger except this once I needed to charge all the way to 95% to make it safely to the next charger out in BC interior with 10% left in the winter.
CT, I have yet to charge it with a DC charger... but from all the reports, it's even better at maintaining high-speed charging. I believe it recently broke the record by pumping at 405kw at a 600kw charger. Tesla's new V4 cabinet would be able to push 500kw for CT when it comes next year.

Tesla likes to advertise peak power but the real opportunity is in sustained power.
It's possible that the Plaid got an OTA update that improves power.
From 10-80% that match my experience, each model has a 100%+ opportunity to catch their competitor (Ioniq 5 and 6/Taycan/Silverado).
Porsche actually says even with this crazy charging, it's still very conservative and batteries are exceeding all longevity targets at 400k kms.
I will always take fast charging over efficiency (Lucid) because it's less susceptible to weather, speed, tires, etc.
Was looking at the M3 LR AWD 10-80%: 95.0 kW (matches my exp with pre and post refresh)

and MY LR AWD: 99.1 kW vs Ioniq 5: 187kW (drove and charged both, matches my exp)

Model S Plaid: 129kW vs Taycan 4S at 260kW

CyberTruck on 800V Electrify America chargers,
10-80% is 86kWh, 40 minutes and 129kW average
Silverado is
10-80% is 160kWh, 34 minutes and 260kW average
National gave me a Silverado 4WT and this charge curve is for real.
