Finally, a new site for the South Island! This is in addition to Kaikoura, so once it's completed, all Tesla's should be able to get from Dunedin to Cape Reinga using just Superchargers.
This Blenheim site will also have 3 ChargeNet Hyperchargers which can charge 6 EVs, so it's a bit of a...
From Facebook - it seems a 6-8 stall site is under construction at Glenfield Mall, Corner Glenfield Road &, Downing Street, Glenfield, Auckland 0629, New Zealand
I think the Supercharging site drought is officially over. Bulls has just appeared on the map today!
Given that the other recent sites that have popped up on the map have started construction not long after, that opening date is likely a good indication of when it will be available.

New Plymouth is now on the map! Which is great because that part of the North Island has been a bit dry with DC chargers. I imagine this will be V3 site.
It looks like the site for the Wellington supercharger has been decided and shouldn't be far off!

The TL;DR summary is that they're being installed at Countdown Johnsonville
Does anyone know about any progress or the likely opening of the whangarei supercharger? Says "Target opening in 2019" which I interpret as sometime between tomorrow and never.

Any of them on TMC? Share your experience!
Hoping you Kiwi EV enthusiasts can help me out. :) I’m planning a trip to NZ in July 2019, probably about two weeks on the North Island (I’ve spent a few weeks on the South Island in the past) before heading to Tonga to snorkel with humpback whales and do some scuba diving. Considering renting...
On a recent trip between Sydney and Brisbane (Australia) a distance of 915 Klms (569 Miles), I wanted to see the maximum time I could rely on autopilot AP1 (Classic front P90D). Where ever possible including through traffic congestion and country towns I used AP1, with my hand resting on the...

Hi team,
i'm keen on looking at options to access the 100kw battery on my model x p100d, would be a great source of power for camping trips etc.
Can anyone recommend an auto electrician in NSW that might be able to help me with this? Even better if anyone has already done it and might be able...
Wondering if anyone else has been hit with a fee for over staying at a Supercharger?
Good idea to penalise over staying, but wonder if they have a "grace period"?

I was watching the report today on the news and there was a suggestion that from April, Tesla vehicles would be involved.
I found this statement on the Tesla website. Model S Safety Update
It suggests that vehicles produced up to 2016 are involved in the recall but as the problem doesn’t appear...

I've got a P85D that's coming up to 3 years old. I love the car but the real world touring range is slightly disappointing. Even with a full battery, a planned 340km journey (direct, no SC stops) out of Adelaide brings a warning to keep the speed below 100km/h. How much better is the P100D on...
It's been confirmed that Tesla will be installing a supercharger at Silos Estate, just south of Berry on the NSW South Coast.

Is there any truth to CSS battery tech being better than Tesla's?
Maybe charging is constant therefore overall faster to charge however is longevity is compromised? Nissan CSS batteries have a shocking life compared to Tesla's thus far, or so I've heard (read)....

With ICE makers now starting to eye the EV market, the wave is coming. Anyone tempted to look at other brands come changeover time or is that heresy?

Instead of more centralised batteries like the one at Hornibrook SA (!00Mwhrs) why cant we use our own parked cars? You would need three phase power, cooperation from Tesla & compensation from power companies. However you would also be able to charge at Chardemo levels 50kWs. Ill assume that...

Hey all :)

G'day, I have a problem with 3 phase Tesla connectors wired as single phase. Specifically those at RACV Noosa; I get 16 AMP but I notice Rod Peachey P100D gets 32 AMP. My Tesla is a '14 model S with a single charger. Anyone else have this problem?

Mercury NZ has selected Tesla as the provider for a scalable national grid-connected battery trial after a tender process launched last September.
This article I consider makes some valid points about the eventual need to re-jig public policy and government regulation to figure out new ways to pay for our road infrastructure, fair enough.
But the title of the article and the URL wording is unfair and to me is deliberately inflammatory...
