Does the same apply during peak travel periods like Thanksgiving and Christmas, where a lot of people may be competing for spots? Even gas stations get backed up sometimes, and that's for the most part a 5-minute deal, with the option to drive on to the one that's a quarter mile away or on the other side of the highway.
Even if the "200 miles of range in 15 minutes" (no doubt under ideal conditions) holds true for a Model 3 at a Supercharger, that's 3x the time with fewer options than gas.
- matthewdgreen 3y agoI’ve never taken a trip under those conditions, but my Navigation has rerouted me to a less-busy charger, which is something that gas stations generally don’t have the ability to do.
