CCS Combo 2 retrofit

[MP3Mike]

is there a plan from Tesla to give us the CCS 2 adapter any time soon

It wouldn't be a CCS 2, it would be CCS 1, since that is what is used in NA. But no, Tesla has not made any announcements about a CCS adapter for NA Teslas.

well, I hope they will make it available for us so that we have that extra option on long trips......does any third party make them?

In other news the Electrify America network is down nation wide in US right now, lucky we have a Tesla also so we had to return home and switch from the eTron.

Of curiosity, does the CHAdeMO adapter still work after the CCS upgrade? (Guessing a S/X only question, since the EU Model 3/Y have a native CCS port.)

CHAdeMO is direct fitment to your car so it does not need any additional adapter, but I’m not sure if the programming on the car will change the current settings and you can’t use it anymore. Would be stupid though...

haven't tried it personally, but my ranger said it will work.

Today I finally had the opportunity to test a new V3 SuperCharger (250kW) with my CCS II Combo retrofit.
External temp was 7°Celsius, by I got there with a good internal battery temp.
I started from 7% state of charge and terminated my session at 47%. It took 21 minutes, and I charged 36 kWh (this implies a 10% battery degradation, not happy!)
Peak charging power was 129 kW (for just a split second).
Here you can see a graph of my charging session:

Is there any way for an US-Spec older Models S to use the new EU superchargers? There no connector adapter CCS2 to UMC. Anybody working on a solution?

Hi all - we have a 2015 model S, currently qualifying for free supercharging in Europe (Norway). We have a CCS retrofit scheduled for later this month - can anyone confirm if this will change the free supercharging status? I suspect/hope not - but it would be good to confirm in advance!

My 2013 P85+ still has free supercharging after CCS2 retrofit

Same here, 2018 75D. Retrofit does not impact FUSC.

Anybody knows if/where I can buy a CCS2 retrofit (ECU and cables mainly) for a 2014 P85 dual charger US model? I had a 900 km trip on Monday, and two charger locations only had CCS2 when PlugShare said CHAdeMO also. Added over one hour to the trip. I am in Bulgaria. Service center in Greece will not sell the kit to me. Is the one in Germany more understanding? How to approach them?

I doubt they will sell it to you. And do you even know if it would work in a US Model S?

You might have to wait for them to release the CCS1 retrofit for NA vehicles, and even then it could be a problem getting it there.

I see more or less the same chart consistently. I do not believe the retrofit has any impact, the chart seems to be the same on v2 and v3.
The 2 reference points are usually get are 100kW@40% and 60kW@60% with a more or less linear curve.
