Thread: 2,000,000km on the clock

I had a look at the Tesla site - 40 miles per hour charge time.

A vehicle that had travelled one million kilometres would have spent 14,204 hours on charge. That's about 18 months 24/7.

That is for wall charging. Super chargers can supply ~275km per hour. 1000+ on the next generation that are not installed in nz

Sure battery refuel is signifcantly slower than pouring in a liquid but I recall seeing a figure saying most vehciles are only moving for 3-5% of the time they're owned. That's plenty of doing nothing hours to charge.
