Tesla’s Supercharger network is considered the industry leader; however, one of its shortcomings is offering a maximum charge of just 250 kW, which means slower charging speeds. That’s about to change as the automaker has announced the roll-out of its fourth-generation Supercharger cabinet, a robust unit that Tesla says has limits of 500 kW on cars; and 1.2 megawatts for the Tesla Semi.
That also means the new cabinet — dubbed V4 — supports charging on vehicles with battery packs rated between 400 volts and 1000 volts. That’s great news for owners of EVs with 800-volt architecture, a growing list that includes the Audi e-tron GT; Genesis, Hyundai, and Kia vehicles; Porsche and Lucid EVs; and GM pickup trucks. And with virtually all automakers committing to converting to the Tesla charging port, the North American Charging System (NACS), the V4 cabinet will benefit most EV owners in the coming years.
