Tesla has celebrated the opening of its 1,000th supercharger stall at its newly completed Byron Bay site in NSW, which houses 10 V4 stalls.
It unveiled a new design on the 1,000th supercharger stall, showcasing the ocean, cliffs, and surfers riding and paddling on surfboards. This supercharger stall also has a plate which states: āJune 2026 ā No 1000 ā Supercharger Post in Australiaā.
On the companyās Australia and New Zealand X page, it shared this update by saying: āCelebrating our 1,000th Supercharger post in Australia with the opening of Byron Bay. This marks 10,000 km of major AU corridors accessible by the Supercharger networkā
On the back of this update, one Tesla owner shared the benefits this site will bring to the local region: āJust 30 minutes away, so weāll never have a reason to use it. But great that the Byron tourist traffic will increasingly be electric. šā
Another said: āKeep them coming! Australia needs as many as they can get! š¦šŗ š¦ šļøā.
According to data from carloop,Ā this Byron Bay site is Teslaās 155th in the country. It comes in at just under 24 months after the 100th site opened in South Australia in September 2024.
That was the Glenelg Supercharger, and Tesla celebrated the milestone by covering one of the 6 Tesla V3 250 kW superchargers with a green-and-gold casing.
Late last year, Tesla opened its second site in Tasmania. This was the Hobart supercharger, which was also the 75,000th Supercharger Tesla opened globally.Ā
Now the company has over 82,000 stalls globally, making it the only global network of its kind.
Over the years, Tesla has also looked at faster deployments of sites and, in March, unveiled its new folding supercharger units, with the aim of speeding up the rollout of reliable charging sites globally.
Then, earlier this month, the company revealed its first foldable superchargers making it to Europe, hinting at a future global rollout.
The recent surge in EV adoption and interest will also provide additional confidence for charge point operators to continue expanding infrastructure in both cities and around regional centres.
As of 2026, Tesla continues to lead the way in these deployments, now with over 1,000 active fast-charging stalls in Australia, providing confidence to EV buyers across the country.
