Tesla update 2021.4.10 significantly speeds up the charging of Model 3 with LFP batteries [video, Nextmove] • ELECTRIC CARS

German channel Nextmove noted that after installing Tesla software update 2021.4.10, vehicles using lithium iron phosphate cells (LFP, LiFePO₄) started loading faster. We add, however, that in recent days we have been witnessing a strong warming.

LFP cells: durable, thermophilic and charging faster and faster

Selling in Europe Tesla Model 3 "Made in China" delighted its customers with excellent quality paintwork and headlight matrices, but they were worried about the slow "fast" charging at a peak of 60-70 kW, which is less than 1,5. Q. It seems that after the first wave of testing in vivo, Tesla decided to loosen the restrictions (which has also happened in the past).

Well after installing Tesla Model 2021.4.10 3 software with LFP battery in Ionity charging station, it can accelerate to 166-167 kW or 3,36 ° C... The value that lasted the longest was around 130 kW, or more than 2,6 C. In the first case, Tesla reported a replenishment of the range at a speed of +1 km / h (initial photo) or 250 km / min. In the latter, it was in the region of + 20,8-900 km / h, i.e. up to +1 km / min:

The charging power of about 130 kW remained below 20 percent of the battery charge, but good speed of energy replenishment allowed to reach 50 percent of the battery charge in just 15 minutes... According to Stefan Möller, head of Nextmove and creator of the record, the Model 3 LFP loads faster than the American Tesle Model 3 with NCA cells.

As mentioned above, in order to accelerate to high charging capacities, the update 2021.4.10 had to be installed and heating the battery to a temperature of about 40 degrees Celsius... We add that Nextmove conducted its experiment when the air temperature exceeded 10 degrees Celsius.
