On May 20th, the first station of the domestic Tesla V3 Supercharger was successfully established at the Lianhe Plaza in Futian District, Shenzhen, officially unlocking 9 brand-new V3 charging piles.
According to official sources, the V3 Supercharger is currently the most advanced charging equipment of Tesla, and it comes with a brand-new and ultra-light liquid-cooled charging cable that can support peak charging power of up to 250 kW. For certain Model 3 models, 15 minutes of charging can provide up to 250 km of additional driving range.
The new domestic V3 Supercharger is produced in Tesla’s Shanghai Supercharger factory. To be exact, the factory was officially established and put into production in February this year, just over a half year after its formal project approval in August last year.
In terms of production, Tesla not only values speed but also emphasizes on scale. The charging factory was invested with approximately 42 million yuan, covering an area of nearly 5,000 square meters, and integrating research and development and production.
Currently, Tesla has over 25,000 Superchargers worldwide, with more than 6,200 open to the public in China. There are already more than 800 Supercharging stations in the mainland, covering over 310 cities and regions across China. The charging network has been widely spread throughout the country, with Supercharger stations extending from east to west and from north to south.
