Elon Musk explains how non-Tesla cars will use Superchargers

Elon Musk, Tesla CEO, was likely to be giving his final quarterly check-in. The electric vehicle evangelist then went into detail about how Tesla will eventually share its Supercharger network.Musk last week tweeted that he would open up his Supercharger network for other electric vehicles. Tesla owners have been the only ones who can use supercharging. He described what this future change would look like during Monday's second quarter earnings conference.It will be as easy as downloading the Tesla App and going to a Tesla Charger and plugging in.Cars that charge slower than Teslas (Tesla cars can all be fast charged, but some older non-Teslas cannot), will have a longer charging time that will result in higher charges for drivers.Musk stated that time is the greatest constraint.Tesla will also introduce dynamic pricing. This means that electricity will be more expensive during rush hour. As Musk stated, a station that is empty will be more affordable than one that is jam-packed.Tesla vehicles use a different connector in North America, which Musk called "the best connector" to charge. Non-Teslas will have to use an adapter. Musk stated that Tesla will provide them at Supercharger stations, unless there is a theft problem.For non-Tesla Supercharging, you'll need a Tesla adapter.

This is 46 percent more than a year ago.However, that number must continue to grow, particularly as Tesla sold a record amount of vehicles (mostly Model Y, 3 and 3) in the last quarter. The company also plans to make it easier to access all vehicles equipped with a plug-in batteries.He said Monday that the Superchargers must be used to power other cars.Tesla owners have been grumbling since last week's tweet, particularly about the long wait times and overcrowded stations. Musk summarized why Musk believes this is a great move for the larger EV movement.He stated that "our goal is to support sustainable energy." It's not to build a walled-garden and bully our competitors.
