Update on the Superchargers in Spain due to COVID-19: Fuengirola and Tarragona are closed Getafe closes tomorrow Burgos is closed from 10pm to 8am Obtained the info from Tesla Para Todos on Twitter - Original post below Superchargers afectados por el estado de alarma. -Fuengirola y Tarragona cerrados -Getafe cierra a partir del domingo -Burgos cierra entre las 22:00 y las 8:00
It's very interesting that they're closing Superchargers. Are they also closing gas stations in Spain?
Apparently not. I only know that because everyone is comparing the Superchargers to gas stations, which remain open.
Maybe there's another explanation: SUC's are mostly found close to hotels. Hotels are closed (also their parking lot?) and in some cases used as hospitals for the overflow of patients. As there's little traffic (our Tesla has only been used for groceries the last 3 weeks), and almost no long distance traveling, I don't expect this will cause trouble.
Hola! On my way from Can Boix (beautiful with shaded Destination Charger) to Camiral Hotel of PGA Catalunya Resort, Caldes de Malavella (beautiful with lots of Super Chargers and more being installed) I lost one of my Aero wheel covers :-( It must be the 40 degree heat :-( Where can I get one in a week or so... without driving to Barcelona. Gracias!
I was just at the SuperCharger in Lleida. Hotel Ibis closed and with Covid 19 testing site all around it (not manned when we visited). Grim. One dead charger but at least one working. Best of luck and health to all my Catalan friends
Anyone been taking their Tesla to Ibiza? Me and a buddy are considering taking my Raven X there, but Ibiza seems to be lacking good charging spots in plugshare. Maybe we can get lucky and find a place to stay with a charger but if not will it be a problem with an EV there?
I did recently a trip to Portugal (Alentejo/Algarve) and north-west of Spain. Getting there wasn't an issue with good SUC coverage. Especially Spain seems a black hole for local charging, but that was easily solved: I contacted local hotel and AirBnB with the question if I was allowed to charge at their places. No issues at all. All said yes, and every time it worked. As your car will be parked while you're dancing, drinking, partying whatsoever, the car will have plenty of time to charge at a low pace....
