Was monitoring my Supercharging today. Started at 120kW as expected. A while later I noticed that it had dropped to 60kW by the time it had 150 miles of range. “That’s normal”, I thought, “Superchargers taper off as the battery gets full.” And I started wishing we would get V3 Superchargers soon, since we’ve all heard that the TM3’s new battery chemistry allows for faster charging.
Then I thought: if the TM3 can charge faster than the S or X, why is the current still tapering off so early? Yes, we can't supercharge faster than 120kW near 0 miles, but surely our batteries could continue charging at 120kW longer.
Please discuss.
