Thanks for letting me know! Do you have a 60 amp line (48 amp output to car)? I don’t get why the Model 3 will charge at 44 mph (according to the Tesla website) but a car that’s three times the price is so much slower at charging…
I do have full 60 with 48 out to car. The purchase of my old 2019 MX P100D coincided with a home remodel I was in the middle of, so I planned for the charger (at full power on a dedicated run) from the start.
Regarding charging speed, there are a variety of factors that come into play. Power supply from wall, size of battery pack, onboard charging hardware, software, etc. all factor into the speed we see. The Model X is definitely the pig of the Tesla pack (and I love my piggie
) compared to the other three models, and I knew that when I took the leap from ICE to Tesla. The Model X (especially in Plaid form IMHO) is an outstanding car — there really is nothing else comparable on the market today. It’s worth every penny. Even Elon Musk recently tweeted that the new Model S and Model X Plaid are the best cars they’ve ever made. Having owned my Plaid for nearly a month, I’m a believer.
It charges even faster than before at Superchargers as well. The new Model X can now take the full output of the V3 Superchargers, which means it can peak at 250kwh now, vs ~150 I was able to achieve in my now traded 2019 P100D. It doesn’t stay at 250 long… it peaks there then slowly trails off to protect the battery. But MAN! It is gamechanging. When I used to drive my P100D down to Los Angeles from San Francisco, I would always make a point of stopping close to 15% at Kettleman City to charge for the next leg. My habit has become hitting the In-N-Out drivethru, picking up some food, then driving over to the original Kettleman City Supercharger to eat and watch a little Netflix while waiting for my X to charge. In the past, I’d be able to get through my meal and a 30 minute Netflix show before continuing on my way. Now, however, due to the better efficiency of my MX Plaid (and 250kwh Supercharger) the car is ready to go before *I* am! 15 - 20 minutes! It’s crazy, and has changed my behavior.
