assuming they will be V4

Says V3 right in the permit and 4000A service would be 322kW per cabinet at full load.

That's confusing, they are building those new V4 cabinets now. I would assume from now on, everything will be V4, unless the permits have to catch up with the change.

Wonder if this is the “Chino Hills” one listed as planned for 2023 on the tesla website. It’s a different city but Tesla seems to be pretty loose with the city designations on the website.

A lot of engineering time goes into building a supercharger, you don't just rip all that up and start from scratch. I'd bet we will still be seeing new V3 superchargers for at least another 18 months.

But since they are already being deployed in several sites, thats why. But either V3 or V4 it will similar speeds, so no biggy hahah

This is the first I've heard about V4 cabinets. Are you sure you aren't confusing that with the new, taller pedestals that are sometimes referred to as V4?

I was referring to several permits now filed mentioning the new V4 stalls, per Marco's twitter.

Central and Walnut, that’s a sad plaza. But dang. 38?!

 

[smilepak]

Any update to the permits?

Those plans include both V3 and V4 charging posts in the drawings. And the "world's first V4" at Dateland, AZ turned out to be V3. Tesla is preparing plans for an eventual changeover but we don't know when it will happen. There is 1 V4 site in the world in Europe. I agree with @pb2000 18 months at the earliest which is about 12 more months from now. Tesla is more concerned with building out their infrastructure ahead of increased sales than developing the latest and greatest which are of no use until cars that could take advantage of faster charging are built. With the first handful of CT being delivered in the fall, V4 doesnt need to be ready til 2024. Retrofitting Magi Docks to V3 will cover allowing other makes to charge.

I was in the neighborhood so I circled the lot. Nothing yet.

Assume they will be installed in this unused parking area.

Cool. across from post office

This has been marked pending admin review since 6/6/23 with no updates. That means it took 8 months from application to get to that point and now another 8 months and no updates. You can check the permit site for an update instead of driving around looking for construction. The permit needs to be approved and issued first.
