They are usually mains-powered. In the automotive domain, it could be
that nodes are battery-powered, but the battery is not a constraining
factor.

The bit rate depends on the used cables, cable length, environment, ...
125 kbaud should work for long lines, 1 Mbaud for classic CAN and short
lines, and up to 8 Mbaud for CAN-FD.

Bit errors may occur, but that heavily depends on the wiring and
environment. Usually, we can expect a low BER [1]. Errors during
transmission are detected, and the frame is retransmitted automatically.
All nodes have an error counter and disconnect from the bus when the
counter exceeds the limit. The bus is hard-wired, and nodes do not
disappear.
Kind regards,
Alexander
