This is wrong. If every car in the UK became a Tesla overnight then we'd need ~67GW per day to cover average journeys. Max UK grid capacity is ~75GW and peak daily demand ~62GW leaving ~13 spare. So 'only' an additional ~54GW required. This is a substantial amount - no denying - but it's a lot lot less than the "triple" that you are claiming.
