Sometimes it's 30 minutes. Sometimes it's only 5-7 minutes.

It's never taken me more than 15 minutes to fully charge at the Winn Dixie in Metairie. While I don't think we are anywhere near ready for full implementation of electric vehicles, statements like this are not entirely true. Tesla Superchargers are very fast; it's the other charging stations that are keeping people off the road for excessive periods of time.

As long as they put them at bucees, shouldn't be a problem. EV owners can spend hours there.

yeah...let me know when I can just pull up and they can replace my nearly dead battery with a fully charged one and I can be on my way in 10 minutes.

considering it used to be 6-8 hours they have come a very long way in just a few short years so 20-30 minutes is impressive. plug in and go eat lunch, and then you are all charged up and ready to go.

A Tesla leaves the garage every morning with a “full-tank” so the only time you’ll be at a Supercharger is on a road trip, unless you’re commuting over 300 miles daily.

Most people charge at home. If you're charging to get gome why would you fully charge?

No thanks
Only on road trips, more like 10-15 minutes, and it's stops I'll have to make anyway with a wife and young kids.


Also, you spend more time every year going get gas than I do charging but that's never factored in for some reason.
