Tesla Supercharger vs 3rd Party Fast Chargers (Electrify America, Charge Point, Ev Go)

I finally did it. I took 2 electric cars on a long road trip. One of them I charged only with Tesla superchargers and the other I charged with 3rd party charging stations... which happened to only be Electrify America due to the LACK of fast chargers on road trips.
Are these third party charging stations reliable when on a road trip?

I can see why Ford chose to team up with Tesla for charging. Those kWh charge prices are high. My local SuperCharger is only 0.27 cents kWh. Great video. 👍

@mikefern 9 месяцев назад

As much as I want to think that electric charging is cheap now, it will only get more expensive in the future. Sorta like how UBER rides were cheap at first, but got real expensive after rising costs.

@socalpimp1974 8 месяцев назад

My brother-in-law and I have been big fans of yours for a while now. I got my model 3 back in 2021 and your videos helped me made my decision. The supercharger at Oakridge used to be my main one back then before I started charging at home. It's great that there are so many chargers there, but the place still gets fully packed mid date/late evening. Man, if I had saw you there, I would've totally asked for a picture lol

@Geckogold 11 месяцев назад

Another great video Chris! You just demonstrated why all of these other automakers are deciding to jump ship and switch over to the Tesla NACS (North American Charging Standard) network. In other parts of the country, there are even less non-Tesla chargers available, which makes owning a non-Tesla EV very difficult if you plan to go long distance with it. I think there will be growing pains at first. But with Tesla building and opening so many superchargers, it should be less of an issue over time. Especially if places like apartment complexes build level 2 chargers for their tenants so they have a place to reliably charge at home.

@kevinreed1885 2 месяца назад

This is absolutely correct. I just transported an electric Volvo and had to use other chargers and they suck!! Superchargers are so much better. I'm so glad I own a Tesla, they're just so much better, technology, safety and infrastructure . That's why Tesla is blowing everyone else away.

I live in Hawaii and there is only 2 tesla superchargers. One too far away from me and the other one is always a two hour wait. I have been using Electrify America for over a year. When is working is so easy to DC charge my Model 3, in addition I only pay $0.29 per KWH at electrify America vise $0.68 per KWH at Tesla. So here in Hawaii Electrify America is the way to go.

One thing I realized is that it’s a lot more refreshing to just ignore safety score. The only part I pay attention to is the collision warning portion to judge my own awareness. Other than that, I drive my car according to how and what I feel like/need.

@mysteryboyee 8 месяцев назад

at that first electrify america charger, the app DID say that charger was unavailable, you just didn't notice it because it didn't fully grey it out, as the chadmo port was still functioning, it's only the ccs half of that charger that was disabled

Does Everyday Jan know she can open the charging port by pressing the button on the charging cable? I understand you can push the charging door, too, but doing that all the time I'd be afraid I was going to crack it at some point.

@azraelius_sky Год назад

Their charging network is the #1 reason why I'd still pick a Tesla over all other EVs. I know they're allowing Ford and GM to charge at their stations now, but Electrify America is just so bad. Their chargers bug out A LOT, especially in the cold, and I plan on road-tripping more during the holiday season to save money when that kind of weather is around and plane tickets are stupid expensive.

@EverydayChris Год назад

@benkanobe7500 2 месяца назад

Love them and also the 1.0 self driving is almost flawless. In LA traffic (when we get stuck on our way through) we use Self driving and its like Jurassic Park! We just sit back and have a conversation and listen to the music. All stress free. Within my cars limitations, it performs self driving better than any later model Tesla I have driven. Its consistent.

@felaxchow207 11 месяцев назад

The EA and EVgo stations are quite confusing at best. The high power stations that have dual CCS1 combo dispenser "hoses" is there for redundancy almost akin to a gas pump. You can use one or the other on that "pump", but not both. There are some dual CCS1 combo or CCS1 combo/CHAdeMO stations that will dispense power on both connectors at the same time, but the one who is plugged in first has priority of the charging rate and the second one plugged in will get the remaining almost like the v2 Supercharger. However those type of stations are not very common in high traffic areas. I just like the elegance of the Tesla Supercharger, just plug in and charge. All of the information you need to know is handled by your car including realtime pricing, stall availability, and if a stall is out of service. There's no clunky apps and no display screen for anyone to vandalize.

@baldino.soccer 11 месяцев назад

A Tesla Model S Plaid has a 100 kwh battery correct? So how is it possible to go to a supercharger, get charged for 40 kwh, and the battery level only increases from 10% to 35%? Shouldn't the battery have increased 40% instead of only 25%?

Tesla will need to work on the station rollout and layout with Gm and Ford coming on board as the current layout doesn’t work well design wise based on connector and cable placement not to mention when the CyberTruck comes out they will need to accommodate for those

@EverydayChris Год назад

Agreed. THey ARE constantly adding new and MORE superchargers to locations but with all these new non tesla's we gotta make sure there are enough for everybody

@RichardYoungCF Год назад

@@EverydayChris not to mention the layout of the station stalls. Many are in a straight line so you have to back up to them. With no standard of charging door placement on vehicles that means many non Teslas have to take 2 spots for the cable to reach. It should allow for more of a drive through style like gas stations. Not all Tesla installs are like that I realize, but many are.

@EverydayChris Год назад

@@RichardYoungCF Agreed. The weird thing with EA was the fact you can choose left or right side. Some tesla chargers allow you to drive in but most is reverse in only on the LEFT side

I am trying to watch a SpaceX launch and there are no fast chargers here in Melbourne. Max speed 90 thus far …

@dnjj2006 Год назад

Excellent Video! I thought you were going dump all over EA and Charge Point. You points were very true and insightful. I own a Mercedes EQE. I was deciding between the EQE and the Tesla Model S (not Plaid). Mercedes has plug and charge at EA which works amazing 95% of the time, but the limited amount of chargers does dictate/restrict our road trips some (mostly taking away some scenic routes up the coast of Cali to Seattle). I have had no problems with EA chargers it just waiting in line or finding one on my routes. The range anxiety has currently stopped my wife from going to an EV. And she is not a Tesla fan. Hopefully soon EV's can have both charging ports.

@soundneedle Год назад

I don't get it. Why would tesla devalue their chargers by opening them up to so many more cars? Doesn't that devalue Tesla? Why not get a Ford if your concern was just charging availability. Tesla owners now get crowded out. Is Ford building their own (tesla) supercharges too? That would be another story---a great story.

@Mediiiicc Год назад

Superchargers make tesla money, doesn't matter what brand of vehicle is plugged in.

@johnrlaw1 Год назад

Couple of additional thoughts. After paying $20k more for my Model Y than there going for now and the opening up the Tesla charging stations to other makes, my next EV will be one of those other makes, then I can still use the Tesla charging stations.

@awashkowitz7156 Год назад

So you’re going to compound your “loss” (which is really only theoretical) by selling or trading your Tesla after overpaying for it? And further so by buying an inferior EV? Finally, Tesla supercharging rates will surely be different (more expensive) for non-Teslas. You’ll really show them!

Its just how it is right now. Weirdly. EVGO isn't on any road trip route. Only city locally. EA works but can suddenly NOT work. Chargepoint is just sad lol. 63KW for their high speed charger? I'm feeling that tesla's adapter is going to be the new standard eventually with GM And ford tbh

@Xenthera Год назад

@@EverydayChris good! I own two teslas as well and I completely welcome other cars to our network. It’ll only help it grow bigger. I think this is the first big step towards wide spread adoption of EVs. Can’t wait for the day where EV chargers surpass the number of gas stations.
