Tesla celebrates 100th supercharger site in Australia with green and gold colour scheme

Earlier this week, it was revealed that Tesla was to rapidly increase supercharger sites across Australia with updates to its supercharger map showing up to 35 new upcoming sites across the country.

One of these sites is about to open, the Glenelg Supercharger in South Australia, and Tesla is celebrating the milestone by covering one of the 6 Tesla V3 250 kW superchargers with a green and gold casing.

Apparently, it is the only supercharger stall in the world with this colour scheme. Images of the site were taken by Wilson L and shared by Drive Tesla Canada on X.

This comes after the company’s decade of supercharging in Australia with the first supercharger coming online back in 2014.

On top of the special supercharger stall casing, Tesla has also organised an event to mark the site’s opening and the Supercharging milestone.

Tesla also plans to open its Bordertown site soon, taking the total number of Supercharger sites in the state to seven. Tesla’s first supercharger in South Australia opened back in 2017.

The supercharger network rollout has been picking up pace since the company decided to open part of the network to non-Tesla EVs, which it was required to do under government co-funding arrangements.

With the Glenelg site, the network now stands at 100 sites and includes over 600 fast charging stalls across the country.

Tesla’s supercharger network is known for its reliability, speed and availability.
