key point also is that the "drive" episode footage has also already been recorded & is forthcoming. I did not like hearing that the models made in TN will not be 11kW capable & likely 7.2kW on Level 2. It is my hope this information is wrong.
The comment that 11kW is non standard for U.S. might have even come from here, back when were discussing that 11kW is a common European 3 phase charge model. With so many Tesla's charging at 11kW (48A), I would be surprised if they did not try to match Tesla, despite that they always say, Model Y, no, not competing with them! The specs pretty clearly say 11 kW, I should think VW of any of the manufacturers would be careful not to spec something wrong or misleading.
That said, 32A is very standard, agree 40A is a sweet spot, and 48A as
@corfam taught me, is less than trivial (now running on the new #6AWG MC cable (like the old BX spiral clad cable, my old BX cutter worked fine)). It actually mounted a little nicer with the metal clamps. Also, the hardwired aspect of seemingly all 48A options is less desirable for those looking for a connector solution.
The next pain in wall stations (EVSE) will surely come with the step to 60A and above (the station, not the breaker rating), for it seems that now you also need a disconnect switch at the EVSE. Apparently common to some outdoor installations like A/C and some pool electrical systems, the disconnect will eventually be yet another new complication for most EV owners.
