Tesla opens multiple new Supercharger sites in past month, including for non-Tesla EVs

Tesla remains the best-selling EV brand in the Australian market, not just through the sales of its cars but also thanks to its very reliable supercharger network, which continues to grow.

In recent weeks, the company has opened multiple new charging sites, with May 2025 seeing three sites with 16 fast-chargers opening up to both Tesla and non-Tesla vehicles with a CCS port.

The first of these sites opened in Armidale, NSW, on the 16th of May with a 4-stall V4 supercharger, located about 500 km north of Sydney.

This regional site now brings much-needed fast chargers for those drivers travelling through the Northern Tablelands. 

Following shortly after, on May 22, Batemans Bay, also in NSW, saw the commissioning of a 6-stall V4 supercharger site.

This coastal town is popular for tourism, and the new site will bring existing and new EV drivers to visit the South Coast.

Both of these sites in NSW feature V4 superchargers that have longer cables and are helpful for non-Tesla drivers as these can reach those cars charging port more easily.

Rounding out the month, on May 30, another supercharger site went live in Campbellfield, Victoria, that adds a 6-stall V3 Supercharger site to the network.

This site is located just off the main Western Ring Road and close to the Hume Highway, making it convenient for both local EV owners and those on longer trips through the state.

Thom Drew, Tesla’s country director for Australia and New Zealand, shared this update on a post on Linkedin: “Australia – New Tesla Supercharger: Campbellfield, VIC (6 stalls). Open to all CCS2 compatible vehicles.”

Each of these stalls can deliver up to 250 kW of charging power, making charging stops much shorter for EVs that can charge there. 

As of the writing of this article, all vehicles with a CCS2 port can charge at these superchargers, except for early BYD Atto 3 models and Xpeng G6 vehicles, with multiple owners reporting an inability to charge at sites open to non-Tesla cars.

According to the latest data from Carloop, this brings the total number of Tesla supercharger sites in Australia to 119, with over 700 bays as of May 31, 2025.

These new sites contribute to the major expansion of Australia’s most reliable charging network, which, as of September 2024, was reported to continue growing with the addition of another 30 locations across the country.

There are over a dozen sites still in the works, including Australia’s biggest fast charging site with 20 V4 supercharger stalls, expected to open imminently. 

That site is located in the popular town of Goulburn and is expected to welcome hundreds of EV drivers every month when it opens.

The expansion of the supercharger network will benefit not only Tesla owners but the broader Australian EV community, helping more drivers go further with confidence.
