    Good question. There are V3 sites that are not NACS partner sites. For example my favorite charger in Bishop, CA is Tesla only. The...

    Rivian and Ford also will not charge on V2 chargers even when using the Tesla app to initiate the charge. The ISO 15118 standard...

    I'm a huge fan of sidewalls too but the 22"/23" sidewalls aren't actually that small. The tires are gigantic, 30.4" diameter front 31"...

    Doubling the voltage actually quarters cable losses, loss is current^2*resistance. Makes me wonder if we'll eventually see voltages...

    Worse than that. While water cooled cables are better in theory Tesla has substantially cut the cross section of the conductors. So V3...

    Jonathan Benson just posted his comparison tests of the new Pirelli P Zero PZ5 that comes on the Gravity's largest wheel set. He...

    The change in resistance with temperature is not nearly large enough to offset the 50% extra length of the V4 cable. It's basically...

    Long enough that you start to wonder if it'll work, but not so long that it's significant.

    Keeping that cable cool has multiple functions, one of which is to reduce losses. Meaning a cool cable actually reduces your cost to...

    I just wish everyone standardized charge port locations. The V3 cable has a lighter feel and is more elegant than the longer V4 cable...

    What it really needs is the "foot swipe"/"kick sensor" opener other brands have so you can open it with your hands full.

    You can also add a widget to the iPhone Home Screen or Lock Screen or Control Center. Or use Siri ("Hey Siri open Tesla frunk")

    I also have a 2018 Model 3. It's interesting that things haven't improved much, basically just a 10% increase in energy density. Though...

    LOL. I did find it suspicious that @borski kept seeing Lucid Gravitys on the street. What is your lifetime energy efficiency?
