Some early tests showed results that were not far from the specs but still were considered disappointing. This prompted Tesla to announce an over-the-air (OTA) software update in April, which will increase the range replenishing rate to 154 miles in 15 minutes (it was re-announced in June).
Today we saw that a Tesla Cybertruck user TesLatino (@TesLatino / X) noticed and recorded a surprisingly high Supercharging speed-up to 325 kilowatts at 18% state-of-charge (SOC). It happened at a Tesla Supercharging station in Los Gatos, California.
InsideEVs' friend, Kyle Conner, pointed out that the charging was done at a typical voltage for Supercharging, not 800-1000 volts, so the current potentially was extra high, up to over 900 amps at peak.
The most interesting input comes from Tesla Cybertruck Lead Engineer Wes (@wmorrill3 / X), who confirmed that Tesla is testing higher-speed charging of the Cybertruck: 'Running a trial on a few different V3+ stations (V3 cabinet + V4 charge post). This is not a bug, but it's also not rolled out to all hardware-capable stati
