Report - North American Macan EV charging at Supercharger via MagicDock?

[daveo4EV]

anyone "tested" their Macan EV at a MagicDock supercharger site?

I'd love a report as to the charging speed you get - I used to get 136 kW charging speed in Scott's Valley, CA supercharger with my 2020 Taycan Turbo (it had the 400V/150kW option).

Anyone with a Macan EV tested this and willing to share screen shots or experience? I'm curious if the Macan's new split-pack 400V support is faster than the previous 150kw/400V adapter that was optional on the Taycan?

thanks in advance for anyone willing to share supercharging data/facts…

see this post for instructions to find a MagicDock supercharger and how to use it…

so got to test the local Scott's Valley supercharger w/MagicDock today - was successful!!

this is an unsurprising result but now none the less confirmed

max charge rate seen was 133 kW - but I was above 50% SOC - I plan to do more testing in the future when the battery is lower state of charge!!

this supercharger _IS_ listed on the PCM Navigation - so I used PCM navigation to drive to this site, I don't know however if was a long enough period of time for any battery pre-conditioning.

but superchargers with magic dock's are an option for Macan EV owners!!

I also tried to test supercharging at this site but with my own CCS1/NACS adapter - but the Tesla supercharger detected that the MagicDock was still in the holster - and would not start the charging session!!

from what I can tell there is no way to "extract" the MagicDock with out the Tesla Cable attached, and once extracted there is no way to release the adapter while the cable is away from the dock - so you can no "swap the CCS1 adapters either…

this was bummer, but not really an issue.

this is not an actual functional issue, but I just thought I would test it while I there.

previous max charging speed I've experienced at this site was 132 kW with my 2020 Taycan Turbo…so 133 is an "improvement" - maybe we can get closer to 150 kW below 50% SOC - more testing is required…

Great to hear the Tesla MagicDock worked well! Would be a much more viable option for us if there were far more than only 80+ installed across the U.S. today.
