Tesla has reached a significant milestone in its global charging network expansion, with the announcement that 70,000 Supercharger stalls are now operational in 53 countries worldwide. This achievement underscores the company’s commitment to providing convenient and reliable charging infrastructure for electric vehicle (EV) drivers around the world.
The 70,000th Supercharger stall was recently opened in Burleson, Texas, as part of a 12-stall site that is part of Tesla’s growing network across North America and beyond. This rapid expansion of the Supercharger network is a testament to Tesla’s efforts to keep pace with the increasing adoption of electric vehicles and to maintain its lead in the fast-charging space.
In a celebratory tweet, Tesla emphasized its goal of enabling seamless long-distance EV travel by highlighting the availability of 70,000 Supercharger stalls across 53 countries. The Supercharger network has long been a key advantage for Tesla, offering industry-leading charging speeds, reliability, and extensive coverage, particularly in regions where alternative charging options are still developing.
This milestone comes at a time when Tesla is also testing a new virtual queuing system for Superchargers, aimed at reducing wait times during peak periods of congestion. This innovative feature, currently undergoing internal testing, will allow drivers to remotely join a charging queue and arrive at the Supercharger just in time to plug in, enhancing efficiency and user experience at high-demand locations.
With the Supercharger network growing by nearly 20% year-over-year, Tesla’s latest milestone underscores the company’s commitment to not only manufacturing electric vehicles but also building the necessary infrastructure to support an all-electric future. The continued expansion of the Supercharger network is a clear indication of Tesla’s dedication to providing a seamless charging experience for EV drivers worldwide.
