Tesla’s new vehicles, which bring a new breath to the automobile world, continue to be on the agenda frequently. However, the works for Tesla vehicles, which are expected to come to our country in the coming days, have also accelerated. Of course, the number of stations required for charging vehicles is expected to increase with the arrival of Tesla.
However, a new development was shared from Elon Musk regarding the charging connectors of vehicles. Musk announced that they are working on a new connector in the coming days, where users in the USA can charge their vehicles from the socket at home.
Tesla vehicles can be charged ‘albeit a bit slow’ from sockets at home
Tesla vehicle owners have a mobile connector with them when they pick up the vehicle, and they can charge their vehicles. They could use this connector for With a post by Elon Musk on Twitter, it was announced that new vehicle owners must pay an extra fee to have this connector. However, after this reaction, he announced that the 2nd Generation connector prices would be reduced from $ 400 to $ 200, taking into account the feedback. In addition, it has been announced that a new adapter will be included in the connector package, where users can charge their vehicles from a 110v home socket in order to provide ease of charging for Tesla vehicles.
Elon Musk’s statements caused controversy among users. While some said that they hardly ever use these connectors and found them unnecessary, others emphasized that it is a much cheaper method than charging stations. It is thought that the fact that Tesla’s mobile connector stocks have not been renewed on the site for a long time had a great effect on Musk’s decision and mobile connectors were not included in new vehicles because the stock could not be grown. Musk, on the other hand, says that the reason for taking this decision is the low usage statistics.
Tesla’s post on the subject:
(Based on the feedback received, we will reduce the price of the mobile connector to $200 and make it easier to order by car. Note that the mobile connector is not needed if you have a Tesla wall connector or are using Superchargers. We recommend installing the Tesla wall connector before the car arrives.)
