They’re just prioritizing more expensive orders over others. The more options you choose the quicker they get it to you. Tesla did this too.

They’re in the same place as an r1 with 15” of clearance. Sounds like you need a beige Lexus.

So 20% to 76% in 21 minutes? Seems great to me for 400v architecture. If you start at 10% instead even better.
