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 stations in California. As of November 2025, Tesla operates a network of about 7,900 Supercharger stations with over 75,000 connectors worldwide. The majority are located in three regions: Asia Pacific (3,000 stations), North America (3,000), and Europe (1,500). Superchargers can currently output as much as 500 kilowatts (kW).
Usage is typically billed by the energy consumed during charging. To discourage loitering, idle fees may be charged to customers who remain plugged in after charging has been completed and congestion fees may be charged to customers who remain plugged in after a charge level of 80% is reached.
