Tesla Attempts Trial To Increase Maximum Charging Rate Of Cybertrucks On Supercharger Network
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) engineer Wes Morrill on Monday said that the company is running a trial where it is trying to increase the charging speed of Cybertrucks on certain superchargers.
特斯拉公司（納斯達克代碼：TSLA）的工程師韋斯·莫里爾（Wes Morrill）在週一表示，該公司正在進行試驗，試圖在某些超級充電站上增加Cybertruck的充電速度。
What Happened: Tesla superchargers have a maximum charging rate of 250 kW. However, Tesla is now running a trial and trying to increase it on certain superchargers, Morrill said on X. Morrill is Cybertruck lead engineer at Tesla.
發生了什麼：特斯拉超級充電站的最大充電速率爲250千瓦，但是莫里爾在X網站上表示，特斯拉現在正在進行試驗，試圖在某些超級充電站上增加充電速度。莫里爾是特斯拉的Cybertruck主管工程師。
"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 stations," Morill responded to an EV owner who reported charging their Cybertruck at 323kW at a charging stall in Los Gatos, California.
“在幾個不同的V3+站臺（V3機櫃+V4充電柱）上進行試驗。這不是一個錯誤，但也不是適用於所有的硬件設備，”莫里爾回應了一位在加利福尼亞州洛斯加託斯的充電樁上爲他的Cybertruck充電達到323千瓦的電動汽車車主。
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 stations. I guess since @TesLatino has visited 97% of all North America supercharger locations he was bound to find one.

在幾個不同的V3+站臺（V3機櫃+V4充電柱）上進行試驗。這不是一個錯誤，但也不是適用於所有的硬件設備。我猜自從@TesLatino訪問了北美超級充電站的97%後，他註定要找到其中一個。

It is unclear if the higher charging rate will apply only to the Cybertruck or also to Tesla's other cars.
目前尚不清楚更高的充電速度是否僅適用於Cybertruck還是適用於特斯拉的其他汽車。
Tesla did not immediately respond to Benzinga's request for comment.
特斯拉沒有立即回應Benzinga的置評請求。
Why It Matters: Tesla has its own EV charging network called the supercharger network around the globe.
爲什麼它很重要：特斯拉擁有自己的電動汽車充電網絡，稱爲全球超級充電站網絡。
The company, in its second-quarter earnings report, said that the number of supercharger connectors at the end of the second quarter was 59,596, 24% higher than the corresponding quarter of 2023.
在其第二季度業績中，公司表示第二季度末超級充電站的充電器連接數量爲59,596，比2023財年同期增長24％。
The growth rate, however, has slowed significantly since the company announced layoffs of at least 10% of its global workforce in April. The layoffs impacted 500 members of the supercharging team and Rebecca Tinucci, Tesla's then Senior Director of Charging Infrastructure, left the company.
然而，自公司在4月份宣佈裁員全球範圍內至少10％的工作人員以來，增長率已顯著放緩。裁員影響了超級充電團隊500名成員，特斯拉當時的充電設施高級總監麗貝卡·蒂努奇（Rebecca Tinucci）離開了公司。
However, during Tesla's annual shareholder meeting in June, Tesla CEO Elon Musk slammed rumors of the death of its supercharger network as "greatly exaggerated."
然而，在特斯拉於6月份的年度股東大會上，特斯拉首席執行官埃隆·馬斯克（Elon Musk）痛批其超級充電網絡的死亡謠言是“大大誇大其詞”。
"Our supercharger network is continuing to grow," Musk said.
馬斯克說：“我們的超級充電站網絡正在持續增長”。
The company continues to grow its supercharger network while keeping an eye on capital efficiency and the places they are deployed, Musk said while adding that it will deploy more "working" superchargers this year than the rest of the industry combined.
該公司繼續擴展其超級充電網絡，同時關注資本效率和部署位置，馬斯克表示，今年將部署比整個行業其他公司加起來還要多的“工作”超級充電站。
Tesla will invest $500 million in expanding the network this year, Musk then said, reiterating his investment goal from May.
特斯拉將在今年投資5億美元擴大其充電網絡，馬斯克隨後說，重申了他5月份的投資目標。
