As a general rule of thumb about how long it takes to charge on a Supercharger, think of it like this:
- 20–30 minutes to go from 20% battery remaining to 80% full.
- 60 minutes to go from 20% battery remaining to 95%.
- 90 minutes to go from 20% battery remaining to 100%.
How stupid do Tesla buyers have to be to buy a vehicle that requires them to spend that much time on an 80% "fill up?" And as for saving the environment by preventing "global warming," where do they think the electricity comes from? Rainbows and unicorns? Renewable's are not all that reliable especially solar in winter, and windmills that slice and dice birds and bats do more immediate damage to local ecosystems than any fossil fuel plant burning natural gas for power.
I was working in Fort Stockton, Texas a couple of weeks ago and the Flying J station next to I-20 was full of pickups, mostly oil field trucks, and there was no room to park after filling up except at the unused Tesla chargers. Going inside to use the restroom or get a hot cup of coffee and a sweet roll meant blocking a charger. But out there I've never even seen a Tesla anywhere in the oil patch let alone at a service station.
This is so limiting, why would anyone want one?
