New superchargers v3

[duanra]

Ok, those are coming and they're supposed to be a lot faster but...
My experience with supercharging is arriving around 30% soc, getting 100kw for a few minutes and then the rate of charge starts to reduce...
I am driving a M3 MR. So is it the same for the other Tesla's?
My point is how usefull could it be to have a higher rate of charge if you can take advantage of it for a few minutes only ?

Assuming the stalls are still paired the second car arriving will not have to wait as long for the first car taper before receiving max power.

In the future when newer models can take full advantage of the extra output the chargers will already be there. (Next gen Roadster, Semi)

Good point !

 

[vickh]

how does the SR+ compare to MR for charge speed?

This happens in cold weather, which I’ll assume since you’re in Montreal - charge rate might ramp to around 100kW, then back down to a lower rate - when below 0F, I’ve only gotten 40kW without any other car charging.

True, i got my car Dec 23rd in Montreal, so all I know is cold weather charging.

120kW supercharger taper starts at about 50% SoC for the LR battery so it's unclear how much V3 could benefit us. That pickup truck is going to need a monster battery though! Maybe they'll release an even larger battery for the Model S/X capable of the faster charge rate.

For some strange reason I feel that Tesla will offer to install an improved on board charger for those wishing to use the new V3 system.

On the other hand, maybe only the future production will be able to access all that power.

There is no onboard charger for supercharging, the battery is directly connected to the charge port through a relay.

Y'all need to stop showing up at the SC with so much SOC remaining, so V3 will better rock your world.

That charge from 10% to 20% will be insane!

Artist's impression of me in the front seat of my Model 3 w/12% SOC and hooked up to a V3 SC:

Is there supposed to be a webcast of the presentation tonight?

See: 2019.7.11

250kW seems to be the new limit of SuperCharger V3. Not sure yet if Model S/X can take this, but my assumption is that they can't.

"Also, when navigating to a supercharger your car will condition the battery to charge faster"
Hopefully that goes along all platforms!

Up to 75miles in 5 minutes!
1000+ miles/hr

On a road trip I would normally charge from 10% to 70% (with some variations, obviously). It appears based on the chart posted by Valore above that my wait time will go down from 40 min to 20 min. That is huge! In reality, 20 minutes is enough to stretch my legs and use a bathroom. If you have kids, 20 minutes is a normal bathroom break on a road trip in gas car (at least it was for my family).
In model 3 LR 10% to 70% will give you about two hours of driving range. That is normally when I like to make a stop and stretch anyway.

I have to imagine it allows for better tapering on the high end too. Even if it just allows for 200kw up to 50% that's still a huge improvement.

Get's us a lot closer to ICE fill ups.

That's huge! Sometimes I have to hit closer to 100% on my trips so 60 mins going down to 40 is awesome. ​

Does anyone know the voltage / amperage of the output of these v3 superchargers?
