I keep seeing this touted in every Tesla thread. But then every time I go look it up, the closest supercharger network to me in a metro area of ~4m people is like a 45-60 minute drive away. There's like 2-4 total chargers in the entire metro area, and they're all way out there.
The total capacity of superchargers for this metro area of 4m people is like a couple dozen charging spots.
I don't see why this is a relevant part of the discussion.
- njarboe 8y agoSupercharges are for people traveling long distances and need to charge up quickly after using up their battery that was fully charged over night. People in a city need to have a charger at home or at work for daily use.
