Tesla Says Superchargers Will Warm Select Model 3, Y Batteries To Help Fasten Charging Process This Winter
"This feature may seem small, but it's pretty incredible. Through an AC ripple current coming from the Superchargers, cold-soaked LFP ( lithium iron phosphate battery) vehicles will be able to get back on the road up to 4X faster," Tesla executive Some Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) supercharger posts will now pre-heat batteries for select Model 3 and Y vehicles to fasten up the charging process in winter, the company said on Tuesday.
該公司週二表示，特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）的一些增壓站現在將對部分Model 3和Y汽車的電池進行預熱，以加快冬季的充電過程。
What Happened: "Supercharger battery heating is now live at V3 and V4 posts in cold climates," the company announced in a post on X. The feature will help standard-range rear-wheel drive Model 3 and Y vehicles to get back on the road faster by helping fasten the charging process in extremely cold conditions, it added.
發生了什麼：該公司在X上的一篇文章中宣佈：「在寒冷的氣候下，V3和V4的增壓器電池加熱功能現在可以上線。」 該公司補充說，該功能將有助於在極端寒冷的條件下加快充電過程，從而幫助標準續航里程的後輪驅動Model 3和Y車輛更快地重返道路。
The supercharger will send an alternate current ripple through the Model 3 or Y's battery to help warm it up instead of the battery warming itself up. Cold weather generally slows down the charging of electric vehicles.
增壓器將通過Model 3或Y的電池發送備用電流紋波，以幫助其預熱，而不是電池自行升溫。寒冷的天氣通常會減慢電動汽車的充電速度。
"This feature may seem small, but it's pretty incredible. Through an AC ripple current coming from the Superchargers, cold-soaked LFP ( lithium iron phosphate battery) vehicles will be able to get back on the road up to 4X faster," Tesla executive Max de Zegher, the Director of Charging for North America, Europe Middle East & Africa as well as the Asia Pacific, said.
“這個功能可能看起來很小，但非常不可思議。特斯拉高管、北美、歐洲、中東和非洲以及亞太地區充電總監馬克斯·德澤格爾說，通過來自增壓器的交流波紋電流，冷浸LFP（磷酸鐵鋰電池）汽車將能夠以高達4倍的速度重返道路。
However, pre-conditioning a battery before getting to a supercharger will help get the best charging performance, the exec added.
但是，這位高管補充說，在進入增壓器之前對電池進行預處理將有助於獲得最佳的充電性能。

Why It Matters: de Zegher said earlier this month that the company is forecasting an increase in the use of its supercharger network over the last two weekends of the year.
爲何重要：德澤格爾本月早些時候表示，該公司預計其增壓器網絡的使用量將在今年的最後兩個週末增加。
Tesla is now trying to ensure 100% uptime for all of its superchargers while also deploying attendants and Tesla Megapack-powered chargers at its busiest sites. The company will also continue to open new superchargers through the holidays, he said.
特斯拉現在正努力確保其所有增壓器的正常運行時間爲100％，同時還在其最繁忙的場所部署服務員和由特斯拉Megapack提供動力的充電器。他說，該公司還將在假日期間繼續開放新的增壓器。
Earlier in December, the company also reduced the price for charging at its supercharger network. The goal behind the move is to price it lower to accelerate EV adoption and be financially sustainable to invest in expanding the network, the director of charging then said.
12月初，該公司還降低了增壓器網絡的充電價格。充電主管隨後表示，此舉背後的目標是降低定價以加快電動汽車的普及，並在財務上保持可持續性，投資擴大網絡。
Tesla has nearly 30,000 supercharging ports in the U.S. as of date, according to data from the U.S. Department of Energy.
根據美國能源部的數據，截至目前，特斯拉在美國擁有近30,000個超級充電端口。
