I got downvoted for suggesting this only a few days ago, but Tesla has just implemented a new $1/min congestion fee if you charge above 90% at certain locations when the Supercharger is busy. This should help improve throughput and reduce wait times at congested Superchargers. Charging past 90% is extremely slow, and in most cases it is faster overall to make a second charging stop.

I wonder about all the rich Tesla owners that would still charge
And all the tik tok videos about it
I hopped into that downvote chain with my agreement!
90% is a better setting than 80%
But great timing on starting the discussion!

Your congestion fee is $1,140.00.

Yes you got downvoted for proposing a way to gouge paying customers.
The person did nothing wrong. Tesla engineers just made a crappy design where charging gets very very slow above 90%
