Charge question

As this graph shows, the speed decreases as you charge. Around 46% charge, the rate drops to 50kW - but this is still likely to be faster than a 50kW DC unit will deliver. So, if charging from 50 to 80+%, speed will be pretty much the same on both. I think!

Yes possibly depending on conditions up to c76kW. Beware though you may also be charged more on a 150kW as some chargers cost more for higher speeds.
