Despite a massive round of layoffs at Tesla back in April which removed at least 500 employees from the Supercharger team, Tesla has announced that its Tesla Supercharger network has resumed its expansion.
Globally, Tesla opened 2,800 new Supercharger stalls during the three-month period ending September 30, an increase of 23% from the year earlier.
According to the website Supercharge.info, which relies on user contributions to track the opening of new stalls, there were 2,677 Supercharger stations in North America at the end of September, 125 more than at the end of the third quarter.
In September, General Motors electric vehicles made by Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac joined the growing list of vehicles to have adopted Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS). The network of cuurse already allows access via adapters, to EVs made by Ford, Rivian, Honda and Volvo. The likes of Nissan, Hyundai, Toyota, BMW, Volkswagen, Volvo and Jaguar have also signed agreements to start allowing access in 2025.
