I thought superchargers were supposed to charge at 300-400 miles/hr. Both the superchargers at Atlantic Station and Decatur have only charged 180-220 miles/hr, almost half of what Tesla advertises......
Is this what I should expect at other supercharging stations when I travel?
Tesla has never advertised a "miles/hr" supercharging rate. It doesn't make sense to think of it in those terms, because the rate starts high when the battery is almost empty and would drop to a low rate long before 1 hour is up. Most supercharging sessions are less than one hour. Thinking in Miles/hr only makes sense for a level 2 charger that charges over several hours.I thought superchargers were supposed to charge at 300-400 miles/hr.

What was your Rated Range/Battery Percentage on arrival?I thought superchargers were supposed to charge at 300-400 miles/hr. Both the superchargers at Atlantic Station and Decatur have only charged 180-220 miles/hr, almost half of what Tesla advertises......

From the Supercharger tab of Tesla website (looks like color graphic doesn't copy over)
"Miles of range
After a half hour charge
10 miles 30A Public Charging Station
14 miles 40A High Voltage Outlet
170 miles Tesla Supercharger
Tesla Superchargers provide 170 miles of range in as little as 30 minutes."
Tex, not meant to argue with you, but seems pretty dadgum close to a mph claim when a graphic is posted showing miles/half hour. Totally agree with your #190.
Uhhhh...if I roll up with 200 rated miles why would I only have 170 after half an hour charge??? Their pages ARE carefully written but I am not sure yours is :wink:.To continue in the not-arguing vein... (emphasis mine)
Miles of range
After a half hour charge
(Tesla Supercharger) 170
They claim that after a half hour of being plugged in, a Tesla will have 170 miles of range.
And... this will be true whether you roll up to it with 1 Rated Mile in your battery, or 200.
Same goes for the other, curvier graphic: after your 85kWh has been plugged in for 40 minutes, I guar-an-damn-tee you'll be at 80% or better.
These pages are carefully written.
