Tesla’s Destination Charging network expands to Europe

Posted By Jagdeep on Apr 25, 2016 in Blog |

Today, Tesla unveiled over 150 Destination Charging spots in over 14 countries, which are capable of adding more than 58 miles per hour. Golf clubs, casinos and other leisure-focused businesses are making Tesla’s proprietary Wall Connector available to electric vehicle owners who have already done most of their travelling. Given that the output of the chargers varies between 11kW and 22kW (compared with a Supercharger’s 90kW to 135kW rating), Tesla’s secondary network isn’t really designed for quick pit-stops.

While Tesla’s European footprint is currently very small, the company is looking to add more chargers. To incentivize businesses, it’s offering two connectors for free or at a lower price, as long as they are in easy-to-reach locations. All that the partner needs to do is cover the electricity cost and it’ll then be featured as a charging location inside Tesla’s route planner.
