I don’t believe there were any standard chargers that supported the voltage of the Supercharger at the time Model S was released.
I think they made the right call sticking with compatibility across their vehicles.
Now that there are standards that are comparable to Supercharger, Tesla has designed dual connector charging stations. It’s a good time because the original charging stations are due for an upgrade. They will eventually go back and upgrade all of the legacy stations.
All of this seems eminently sensible to me. Do you think they should’ve released new cars that are incompatible with the ops chargers, or stopped building new charging stations in order to retrofit the old ones?
Maybe I can appreciate your point better if you say, exactly, what they should’ve done and when, given the technology of the time?
