Hi all,
I was scheduled to pick up my Model 3 LR next week, but due to COVID-19 all stores were shut down. This gave me some time to do more research and eventually stumbled on an issue that started in 2017 where several Model S owners reported that Supercharging was throttled after x number of charges using the Supercharger.
For me, this may be a deal breaker because I do not have a home charging solution at the moment and will rely heavily on Superchargers as a main source of power. After combing through quite a number of threads (including the 115 page thread here on TMC), I still don't have a definitive answer. Battery degradation is a given... but throttling Superchargers would technically render the vehicle useless to me.
Question: Are Model 3s throttled after x number of supercharges? Is there any documentation from Tesla that details how this works?
