    [US] - Over the Top - the well equipped EV home garage…for those that wish to "over do it"…

    it's a matter of authorization - once a vehicle is "authorized" the chargers all deliver power the same/standard way - but on the "front end" of the negotiation you can put authorization to see if charging teh vehicle is "allowed" the chargers are all the "same" (or they should be) - but they...

    that doesn't mean they don't follow the standard (in porsche's case it does) but it does mean they can add behaviors to prevent charging - but that's counter productive to the standard in my humble opinion.

    it should no problem - these chargers are not vendor or vehicle specific - at least they shouldn't be if charging was vehicle specific you could not charge them at public chargers…because there is no way you could keep every public charger up to date to handle specific vehicles. the North...

    I don't think the premium is too horrible - it was $500-$700 for the rentals for some super gutless ecnoboxes - and the bill for the Model 3 is currently on my card @ $900'ish - so they are charging, but I dont' care the car doesn't suck ass like most rentals it is certainly not more expensive...

    Had my first EV experience….(Tesla)

    having owned a Tesla X (P100D) I agree - comparing a Tesla SUV (X or Y) to any other SUV is hands down better - the low CG and acceleration outcall virtually ALL SUV's at any price.

    Had my first EV experience….(Tesla)

    so first off I was wrong - it's 60k not 50k - but still honest question: what car would you choose instead of a Model 3 $60k? I know there are cheaper 4 door sedans, but nothing quite as quick or functional as a Model 3 - please nothing that takes more than 5 seconds 0-60… what are you...
