Tesla Supercharger Network - Expansion?

[trowelhead]

Hi guys,

Does anyone know if Tesla plan to expand their uk charging infrastructure in the next 5 years?

Also - is it true that they fully guarantee it will be free to use for tesla owners forever?

They are and will continue to expand aggressively in the UK with 4 more site before Christmas alone.

If you buy a car that includes SuperCharging then it will be free for life including owner transfers (at present all Tesla Model S include SuperCharging but that didn't used to be the case)..

That's impressive! Will be looking into a tesla down the line

Also they now do an adapter so you charge off the Chademo fast chargers used by other EV's, they are not Supercharger fast but still gets you 150miles/hour which is respectable enough to be useful IMO.

I only get 100-116 mph with the Chademo

Not much help - doesn't show proposed additions and on safari at least it doesn't work very well even for current ones

There's a year selector at the top - default is current stations but you can also select ones due to open this year and ones scheduled for next year.

Oops - thanks, will try again (it wasn't leaping out at me when I looked - will try in chrome / Firefox in case that helps!)

[oop north]

Tried again - still think it's rubbish. Doesn't show the allegedly planned one at Keene services or the one in Cheltenham. Nowt new up north
