I wouldn't need the motor power (by far!), but the charging power is a game changer, because it reduces recharging to the same amount of time as topping up fuel - that is if the battery can do that over a lifetime without massively degrading.
It does degrade the battery, but you would only be doing that on rare long road trips, and not in your daily driving around town. That should minimize degradation. If you are charging at megawatt speed daily, your battery isn’t going to last long.
There are some manufacturers with 800 volt battery technology, who offer >200 kW charging power.
With proper cooling that seems to be quite ok for the battery.
1,000 kW is for sure way more, but less than an order of magnitude more.
We'll see how that pans out.
