Default Supercharge your e-tron this week?

I normally like more sources before dropping something in the forum, however, as it is the end of July which coincides with VW's own correction to their original announcement, I will say that:

Sources say Tesla Supercharging will open to VW this week!

So if you have a road trip coming up, go buy your adapter. Just make sure to get a real one from A2Z or Lectron. Not an Amazon adapter.

Looking forward to it and hope your source is correct

Very interesting. My free EA period is about to end, so may give this a spin should it happen.

On the Batteries Included Pod Cast this Friday, at the end of the show Tom Moloughney said another car brand was getting access to the TSuC Network, with a big smile on his face. Guess we will know in a few days.

But, as I recall, VW signed on to be connected to the SS network separately from Audi. Audi came along much later. It was not done as VAG,

The myAudi app 4.33 had much more detailed release notes stating "expanded charging station filter" and "the new navigation tab provides the basis for many functional expansions in future app releases". I assume we'll need to initiate the charge session from the myAudi app, so based on the notes it seems like we're close.

Not sure I’d want to have to use the Audi app! Surely they will use the Tesla app? I’ve used it for the “Charge my other EV” functionality with the magic dock superchargers. Solid, easy experience as you’d expect.

I hoping we can use the Tesla app, but due to the age of the vehicles and lack of plug and charge, I'm not sure if Tesla can gate it to only VW group vehicles. Ford has plug and charge but it required a SW update, otherwise owners use the FordPass app. It looks like Honda/Acura add the vehicle to the Tesla app and can start charging from there, but that's a modern EV platform with plug and charge capability.

They couldn't even get Electrify America (ostensibly a wing of VW) to work with plug and charge, and required activation from the app. Maybe that's changed in newer e-trons?

Plug and Charge is not required to use the Tesla app. Whenever VAG gets Tesla Supercharging it will be through the Tesla app AND/OR the Audi app. Audi will want you to use their app because that way the charging data is kept within Audi. When you use the Tesla App, all of the data will go to Tesla.
