Previously, due to the encryption protocol of Tesla charging pile, Tesla charging pile could not be used by any other brand of vehicles. On the contrary, Weilai charging pile with the same encryption protocol can charge Tesla. At the same time, for the national standard charging port adapter provided by Tesla free of charge, Tesla can also use charging facilities that meet international standards.
Musk once talked about the opening of Tesla super charging piles on 20 15. He said that as long as other automakers are willing to launch models that can match the power of the super charging pile and are willing to pay the relevant charging fees, vehicles can use Tesla super charging piles. But there is no concrete progress.
65438+February 1 day, Tao Lin, global vice president of Tesla, said that at present, Tesla charging piles can only charge Tesla's own cars, and Tesla will not rule out the possibility of opening charging piles to other brands of electric vehicles in the future.
Tao Lin did not disclose the specific opening time, only said that it would be "at the right time" because the construction of Tesla charging piles is still trying to meet the charging needs of Tesla cars. In the future, with the shortening of charging time and the improvement of efficiency, these charging piles will also have more spare capacity to support the charging of other brands of cars.
Musk's current reply means that Tesla's charging system will be truly interconnected with other brands.
It seems that at this time, it is time for Taolin to say that she has spare capacity.
According to statistics, as of this month, Tesla has deployed more than 2,200 super charging stations around the world, and there are about 500 in China. Tesla officially said that it will build nearly 650 super charging stations and 5,000 DC charging piles in China.
165438+1In late October, according to foreign media reports, Tesla plans to invest 42 million yuan (about 6.4 million US dollars) to build a new factory near Shanghai Super Factory to produce electric vehicle charging piles. The new factory is expected to be completed in February next year and can produce 10000 charging piles every year.
In addition, it is understood that from June 5438 to February 2020, with the Tesla charging stations in Hami and Urumqi put into operation one after another, the domestic section of Tesla's "Silk Road" charging line was fully connected.
This line starts from Xi 'an and extends northwest to Urumqi, with a total length of 2,600 kilometers. On the way, 1 1 Tesla charging station was laid out, which was built in Xi, Baoji, Tianshui, Lanzhou, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Hami, Turpan and Urumqi. Among them, Jiuquan, Hami and Urumqi are eight Tesla super charging stations, and different stations have different service facilities.
It can be seen that Tesla began to further occupy the China market through the layout of charging resources.
At the same time, 12 On February 22nd, Weilai also announced the successful opening of the first Sichuan-Tibet fast charging route in China.
