3,000 per week to Europe.

One reason for the Tesla layoffs in the US is a drop in deliveries for the Model 3 - in the US.
As was reported months ago Tesla planned on bringing 3,000 Model 3'a week to the port of Zeebrugge, Belgium. They'll arrive ready to run, but on a low charge, so the port has no less than 300 chargers to charge them up before they get distributed.
Tesla even plans on providing power to the moored car ships so they don't have to run their aggregates for power in the harbor.

The Model 3s come with European CCS charge plugs to make use of the fast charging network.
Some CCS fast chargers go all the way up to 175 kW, and when a fresh Model 3 owner decided to use one of those it delivered no less than 126 kW to the car, charging it from about 10% to 45% SOC in under 13 minutes.


In other news, a Model 3 featured in probably the first full-electric pull over....

For education go to people unlike yourself.
