Future EVs going to all 800v right?

800V+ architectures can be achieved with pouch and cylindrical cell packs but it's much more difficult to physically squeeze equivalent prismatic cells without increasing cell voltages (and degradation) for smaller vehicles. Probably a non-issue for trucks/SUVs.

This could be extremely beneficial for those living in condos so they can exclusively DC fast charge.
 
Petro Canada 350kW chargers in Vancouver seems to throttle the charging to 150kW or less anyways. I could not find a 200kW+ charger on Plugshare that would provide more than 150kW ACTUAL in BC despite be rated at 350kW. This is almost pointless in BC with 800V until the infrastructure improves.
