According to foreign media reports, on Christmas Eve, Tesla CEO Elon Musk responded to some questions on the Twitter website - mainly related to the new Easter eggs in the latest upgrade of Tesla's autopilot system.
In addition, Musk also responded to questions about the company's super-charge station solar array. Musk said: "Some solar arrays have been installed, but the complete deployment requires the supercharger Supercharger V3 and the energy storage device Powerpack V2 to be put into operation. And the progress of SolarCity related progress. Some facilities are currently in place."
In fact, Tesla has begun installing solar arrays at some of the supercharge stations – one of the supercharge stations in Hawthorne shown above, but this represents only 760 supercharge stations from Tesla. A small part of it. More importantly, this is the first time the world has heard about Tesla's third-generation supercharger Supercharger V3. Musk also hinted that the power output of the new generation of supercharge stations will exceed 350 kW – far higher than the current 150 kW.
Recently, the Electrotre website reported that some automakers and charging station manufacturers are starting to build supercharge stations with output powers exceeding 350 kW, which they call "ultra-fast" charging stations. Currently, five automakers have announced the deployment of 400 supercharge stations in Europe. Subsequently, US charging station network operator EVgo also announced that it will deploy the same super charging station in California.
When asked about Musk, Tesla's upcoming Supercharger V3 charging station, and whether he was overconfident about the development of a new generation of charging stations, Musk said: "Only 350kW? Are you referring to a children's toy? â€
Musk seems to be amused by the saying that "power is only 350 kW." For Tesla, this is a major upgrade and is progressing according to its deployment plan. After the deployment of Tesla's next-generation super charging station, it will sweep through all charging stations that other companies plan to deploy from late 2017 to 2018.
Tesla's latest version of the supercharger station is capable of delivering 145 kW capacity - in part, its next-generation charging station will exceed 350 kW.
In 2012, after the official launch of the Tesla Super Charging Station, Tesla CTO JB Straubel said that the future goal of Tesla's charging station is to reduce the charging process of electric vehicles to 5- Within 10 minutes.
Barton Straubel said: "This situation will not happen within a year, because its implementation is very difficult. But I think we will eventually achieve the goal of charging within 5-10 minutes."
From the current situation, Tesla's new generation of super charging station version should be able to achieve Barton Strauber's original vision. Because the charging time of the electric vehicle depends on the power of the charging station is higher than 350kW.
Musk also hinted that the Tesla solar array and the new generation of energy storage equipment Powerpack can allow some of the super charging stations in solar-rich areas to disconnect from the grid and charge themselves.
At present, the specific upgrade schedule of the Tesla Super Charging Station network is not clear. But as Musk said: "Some facilities are already in place," and the acquisition of SolarCity has been completed, and the new generation of energy storage equipment Powerpack has also been officially launched.
Of course, the higher power output is not expected to be the only feature of Tesla's new supercharger Supercharger V3. The charging station is also expected to have the function of automatic charging using a "robot snake cable". This feature allows drivers to not get off the bus or to automate charging of driverless cars.
According to reports, the rapid development of ultra-fast super charging stations may allow Tesla to phase out the replacement stations that used to replace batteries for consumers' electric vehicles.
