Re: Open access Supercharger trial begins in The Netherlands

This from a chap in The Netherlands at one of the open access sites and his Hyundai Kona BEV.
Got a peak of 55kW and was charged €0.59/kWh - that's basically double the cost for Teslas at the same location. Very interesting.

Open access Supercharger trial begins in The Netherlands

https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-open-supercharger-pilot-program-begins-netherlands/ Be interesting to see how this goes - both for non-Tesla owners and their experience of Superchargers, but also how Tesla owners will react to seeing non-Teslas charging up next to them! Here's the actual Tesla post ...

Re: MG ZS-EV refresh

I guess as it's a mid-life update rather than a whole new model with a new architecture it might not be that easy to get into the 150kW realm?

Toyota bZ4X - their first full BEV

https://www.toyota.co.uk/electric/bZ And of course its an SUV. Actually it looks a lot like a Lexus? Claimed 270 miles of range. But doesn't say how big the battery actually is. 150kW DC charging, assume it's CCS. Optional Solar PV roof for "additional range". No indication of pricing but ...
