Tesla has surpassed 85,000 Supercharger stations. Europe has 22,574.
At the beginning of October 2026, Tesla’s global Supercharger network exceeded 9,000 active locations and 85,000 charging stations. The data from supercharge.info is close to the company’s internal statistics, as confirmed by Max de Zegher, Tesla’s director of charging.
“Your numbers are very close to ours. Good job!”, de Zegher wrote on October 2. The detailed breakdown shows 9,002 open locations, although supercharge.info’s main counter indicated a round figure of 9,000.
Tesla added 5,000 stations in half a year
The 80,000-station milestone was reached in April 2026. Within about six months, the network expanded by another 5,000 charging points, with roughly 2,700 of them going online between July and September. The third-quarter result was 15% better than the previous year.
During the same period, Superchargers supplied drivers with 2.4 TWh of energy, which is 29% more than in the third quarter of 2025. The scale of growth is clearly evident over a longer timeframe. At the beginning of 2021, the network had around 2500 locations and 23,000 charging stations. Since then, there have been approximately 6500 additional locations and over 60,000 more charging stations.

Not all of these belong directly to Tesla. The company is responsible for 8,896 locations and 84,427 charging stations. The remaining 106 sites with 628 stations operate under the Supercharger for Business program. Businesses purchase the chargers, can brand them with their own logo, and keep the revenue, but they pay Tesla a service fee.
For drivers of other electric vehicles, there are 5,622 locations and 61,071 charging stations available. This represents 62.5% and 71.8% of the total network respectively. However, just having a Supercharger symbol on a map does not guarantee access to every model, as availability depends on the country and specific station.
Over half of the charging stations are located in North America
North America has 43,158 operational stations, accounting for 51.1% of the global network. Europe ranks second with 22,574 stations and a share of 26.7%, while the Asia-Pacific region has 18,651 stations. Only 20 stations are in operation in South America. Supercharge.info also tracks over 365 sites under construction and 1,412 planned sites.
The pace of installation is expected to increase due to prefabrication. Tesla delivers pre-assembled station components to site, and recently unveiled the Accordion Supercharger design for more challenging locations as well as foldable chargers. In the U.S., an Emergency Drive Away feature was added, allowing drivers to leave a station in an emergency.
At a rate of 2,500–2,700 new stations per quarter, the count could reach 90,000 stations by spring 2027. This assumes the current pace is maintained, though it doesn’t have to be consistent across each quarter.
