Tesla’s Superchargers operate at a peak efficiency of 250kW, delivering an impressive 120km range in just 5 minutes of charging—perfect for three round trips between the Tesla Experience Center at Uptown Parade and Quezon City. With a pay-per-use model, Tesla owners can charge their vehicles at PHP 19 per kWh, making EV travel not only convenient but also cost-effective.
For instance, fully charging a Model 3 Rear-Wheel Drive (with a range of up to 513km, WLTP) will cost approximately PHP 1,140, enabling seamless long-distance travel while reinforcing Tesla’s mission of sustainable and efficient EV mobility.
The Tesla Charging Experience: Plug In, Charge, and Go
Tesla’s innovative charging technology makes recharging simple and hassle-free. The Supercharging system is designed with user convenience in mind:
Automated Charger Detection: The charging port cover automatically flips open for seamless plug-in.
Tesla Mobile App Integration: Monitor your charging status, check Supercharger availability, and receive notifications when your vehicle is ready.
Automatic Payments: Payments are processed directly through the app, eliminating the need for manual transactions.
Tesla’s philosophy of "Plug in, charge, and go" embodies their vision of effortless EV ownership.
