German defense giant shows surprising solution to charging problem for e-cars

The German armaments group Rheinmetall has developed a new type of charging curb for electric cars. In a one-year pilot project in Cologne, over 2800 successful charging processes were achieved with a technical availability of over 99%. The charging curb proved to be reliable in various weather conditions and transferred an average of 19 kWh per charging process, which is sufficient for a range of around 120 kilometers. Users gave the system an average score of 4.38 out of 5, with particular praise for its ease of use and unobtrusive design. Compared to conventional charging points, the charging curb offers advantages such as a smaller footprint, better protection against vandalism and fewer tripping hazards.

@-Juergen-
There were also some strange comments about it. But I don't think the product is bad

It would be interesting to know what voltage the system works with. But it also proves that Rheinmetall is more than just armaments. Maybe someone will tell that to the left-wingers, as shareholders they are certainly very interested :-D

19.8 KW for 120 km 😆. As with the 6/8 cylinder, the specification is 6.5 liters / 100 km. But that's not relevant to the operator, but FZG manufacturer information.....
