In Europe we are plently of 3x32Ax230V changing points, so for us scaling back from 22 kW to 16.5 kW is really inconvenient...
Tesla should have thinked about that before spoiling the S with this "upgrade"
I absolutelly agree with Bipo. In EU there are much more than 5 times more AC public stations than fast DC stations and most of them are 3x32A (22 kW) with mennekes sockets. So the new 3x24A (16,5 kW) charger is definitely a downgrade for the most EU countries.
On the other hand I am not sure if in the US is the 80A Yazaki plug as common in public chargers as is 3x32A mennekes socket in EU? So from this point of view I can understand it. And also drop from 80A to 72A (from 19,2 kW to 17,2 kW) in US is not as significant as drop from 3x32A to 3x24A (from 22 kW to 16,5 kW) in EU.
