Faster Charging for 2018 Model S??

[Mike Robinson]

Is it possible to upgrade the charging capability on my 2018 MS100D so that I can take advantage of the 250KW Superchargers? Thanks

No.

Your car should be capable of briefly pulling about ~180kw under ideal circumstances, but there's no upgrade beyond that.

Even if your battery and converter can handle it (which I doubt), the cables and connectors will not support that load. I am sure it can be done if you have unlimited funds, best to upgrade to a newer car.

Thanks. I think the highest I’ve gotten is 167KW. Very frustrating watching those M3’s and MY’s getting 250KW and I can’t.
