What are you charged for the charge? Does Tesla mark up the kwh rate the local utility charges for power and by how much?
Tesla has about 8 Superchargers in large shopping center just off I-4 in our community. Seems they are all in use constantly in daytime.
Depends on the state of charge when we arrive but I’ll say on average maybe 18 to 25 bucks. It’s billed by the minute, not kwh, and the rate you pay is determined by the speed your battery accepts the charge. It’s at least 4 times cheaper at home. As well, in our experience it’s also cheaper at campgrounds at level 2 overnight. Most campgrounds are pretty reasonable for a charge fee, and some don’t charge, as long as you don’t plug both the EV and RV in at the same time.
I think KOA has it right adding J1772 plugs right on the pedestal. Probably a sign of things to come. And probably a good revenue stream.
Hope that helps.
Cheers.
John.
