In my car I can only see miles per hour charge rate how do I get the kw per hour?

I wanted to see what speed my car charges at and I could only see miles per hour it went up to 496 miles per hour charge rate my SoC was 8%.

Try changing the range display units from miles to %

 

[cookie99]

yep, changed to percent and never looked back. this is the way to drive this car

Both are useful...maybe one day they’ll allow both to be displayed on the same screen. There’s certainly space for it.

There is no such thing as KW/h. The charge in the battery is measured in KWh (and your mileage in KWh/mile), so KWh/h is simply KW (the h/h cancels out to just 1). The KW you see when charging is the number you are looking for - tells you exactly how many KWh you will would pump into the battery in one hour if the charge rate would not change (but it will go down as the battery gets filled up, the same as rated_miles/h, not way you will sustain 496 miles/h for a full hour).

So when they say the model 3 charges at 250kwh vs model s is 200kw how do they see that? I have tried changing to percent and miles both say the same when charging

Max charging rate for the Model 3 Is 250 kW. Max rate for the Model S is 200 kW. As @whitex points out, charging at a constant 200 kW for one hour provides 200 kW-h of energy, or 100 kW-h in 30 minutes.

Since kW is a rate, talk of kW/h, or kW per hour, is just nonsense.

I don't think the cooling on the Model S could withstand Supercharring at 200 kW for a full hour.

That’s funny
