> Best charging experience
This isn't accurate - they charge slower and Plug & Charge is common in many vehicles now, including with the Tesla network - whereas Teslas cannot Plug & Charge on other networks.
- brianwawok 2mo agoSure they can, you can buy a CCS adapter. You are limited a bit by 400V, but honestly I have never been able to not find a Tesla charger - and I’ve done 100k miles around the US over the last 5 years
- ezfe 2mo agoPlug & Charge, referring to the ability to Plug in and automatically process payment, is what I am referring to. Tesla cannot Plug & Charge on any non-Tesla network. Whereas other vehicles can Plug & Charge on Tesla networks. Therefor, the advantage is to everyone else. Teslas have poor charging curves and are not cutting edge for charging performance. They are average.
- thebruce87m 2mo ago(Up to) 250kW is fine in my Model Y - it’s always charged by the time my family has refreshed on a long trip. Ironically - if it was faster I’d need to go move it in the middle of the bathroom/food stop. In the UK most EVs use the standard CCS2 plug.
