What are the rates for the Tesla chargers? Is it cheaper than EA? it looks to be a lot slower (I usually get anywhere from 150kW-270kW between 10-80%). I still have my free EA til Oct. but still aint gonna be rushing to give Elon any more money unless I absolutely have to.
Covers all the information on 400kW chargers. Macan will be limited to 135kW.

Well, speaking for myself, I just wanted to assure myself that it works, that I understood how to make it work, and that therefore it will likely be there for me when I actually really need it.
I appreciate people trying it to confirm it’s working so that others who may need it don’t have to worry about what they will experience when they get there. I have certainly charged in places when I didn’t need to just out of curiosity and for my own peace of mind.
I appreciate it as well. And I’m sorry if it sounded like I was being critical. I may just have a poor sense of humor, finding it mildly amusing that everyone seems to be at 70% already. Like “come on, isn’t there anyone who can give it a good run? Do we all keep our cars charged?”.

I do still think that while knowing it works at all is nice, it is not as useful as knowing it works well. Let’s see someone max it out. I’m sure it does work well but the 400/800v thing will make a difference.

According to Porsche the Macan will charge a maximum of 135KW on a 400v charger.

I too thought it was comical we were all posting high SoC results.

AH - that link is super helpful. It's also the first time I've seen the price difference between Tesla owners and Non-Tesla. Ouch.

For example:
1757624772816-wd.webp
That's the membership discount price too (that non-Tesla owners can also get by paying the $11.99/mo subscription). In effect, Tesla owners get lifetime membership included when buying a Tesla. (It's not technically a subscription for them, just built-in, but it works the same way.)

I noticed last night that plugshare notes in the charger description those chargers compatible with partner cars with an adapter and those that are tesla only . You may see several unsuccessful attempts at tesla only chargers, but otherwise successful.

I happened to notice several Rivian system chargers that are compatible with any brand.
Hi to All!

I received an email from my Dealership Principal / Owner (Gold Coast Porsche in NY), that Porsche will mail Macan Owners the Tesla Charging Adapter.

As a courtesy, I’ve cut out email details of sender but will attach the text of the Porsche PCNA Notice he received today and sent me when I ask if I had to stop by to sign up for a waiting list. To which he said no.

Please see screen shot attached.

Great news for us all!

Happy “motoring”!

People have already been getting the Porsche email to reserve the free adapter and placed their orders.
That email has been shared in previous pages on this thread as well as on other threads too. ;)

Got my email and put in the details, but it gave me no sense of ETA. Any idea?
