Not at the peak rate. Generally limited to 500A or thereabouts. However the question remains how long will you actually pull more than 200 kW in the Tesla. The difference may be minimal (a few minutes) on a full length charge up to 80 or 90% SoC.
Yes, I think they had to be a minimum of 150kw. Many are 350kw and the Total Energies ones are 475kw
Those power outputs won’t be achievable in a 400v architecture car like a Tesla.
Good spot, I make it 24 non-Tesla UK Superchargers in total as well. Tesla's (know-to-be-unreliable) Find Us map is currently missing Merry Hill and Birmingham - St Andrews but otherwise tallies with the Tesla app, including the two new additions.
I was at Harrogate a couple of weeks ago. The Supercharger only has six stalls; four were in use by Teslas (including me) and a fifth stall was in use by a non-Tesla with the charge port on the "wrong" side so the sixth stall couldn't be accessed. I didn't queue but another Tesla driver had a ~10 minute wait after they arrived before a stall freed up. I imagine this sort of thing must happen a lot there but there was a steady turnover of cars so I guess regular users know they won't have too long a wait if the queue is short. The waiting driver (and their family) didn't seem too concerned, in any case.
If I’m having to wait for any non Tesla to charge I’m selling up immediately. Best bid on Motorway (likely peanuts)
TBH Mr Splash we are all kinda surprised you havent quit already.
Yeh I know I know. I’m hoping I get more than a tenner for my Y as the year progresses. But will have to sell up soon. But c’mon, people generally can’t be happy about this supercharger situation. School holidays are bad enough!
I live in the middle of the country, I have a drive, Most places I go are in roundtrip range. If I visit relatives further a field I just charge at their house ( which I insist on paying for). I do 12K miles down from 20K pre-covid but I tend to DC charge only about 4 times a year tops and I have only had to wait once in 3 years and that was for five minutes (Cornwall July 2021).
London - Tottenham has become the 25th UK supercharger open to non-Tesla EVs (and the first one with V4 stalls).
Which is great, because I’ll still be able to use lots of the SuC network for my next EV - which won’t be a Tesla.So Tesla has a larger public network in the UK than Ionity then. Remember when they were the next big thing
I have been thinking of changing to a M3 but I see on Fully charged show that the new version has dispensed with stalks - that's it as far as I'm concerned. Perhaps Polestar?
