The Tesla Supercharger network is an electric vehicle fast charging network built and operated by American vehicle manufacturer Tesla, Inc.
The Supercharger network was introduced on September 24, 2012, as the Tesla Model S entered production, with six sites in California and Nevada. As of July 2024[update], Tesla operates a network of 6,500 Supercharger stations with nearly 60,000 connectors. The network is primarily deployed in three regions: Asia Pacific (over 2,650 stations), North America (over 2,550), and Europe (over 1,200). Since 2019 most superchargers deployed have been able to output as much as 250 kW. As of January 2024[update] approximately 68% of chargers have V3 or V4 stalls capable of outputting this amount.
Usage is typically billed by the energy consumed during charging. Fees can be charged to customers who remain plugged in after charging has been completed to discourage loitering.
