Tesla opens its ‘longest’ Supercharger station in the world

Tesla has opened its “longest Supercharger station in the world” through a growing partnership with a French supermarket company.

There are larger, bigger Supercharger stations in the world, but apparently, there are none longer.

Tesla is currently growing its Supercharger network at an impressive rate.

The automaker went from 23,277 Superchargers at 2,564 stations at the end of 2020 to 31,498 Superchargers at 3,476 stations at the end of 2021. That’s growing at a 35% year-over-year pace.

However, it is lagging behind vehicle deliveries, which grew 87% during the same period of time – on top of now gradually starting to allow non-Tesla EV owners to use the network.

It also lags behind Tesla’s own goal to triple the Supercharger network in two years.

But the automaker is nonetheless deploying new and larger stations at an impressive rate.

Most stations are similar in characteristics, but we try to track some of the most interesting ones and a new one opening in France this week is notable for being the “longest Tesla Supercharger in the world”.

Tesla launched a partnership with E.Leclerc, a supermarket in France, to open Supercharger stations at their location.
