Australia is now home to over 50 official Tesla Supercharger sites. Super-fast and efficient, they are convenient to power-up quickly mid long journey. If you own another brand of EV, you may be wondering, can Tesla chargers charge other electric cars?
Let’s look at Australia’s current Tesla public charging situation, and how you can get the most out of charging your EV on the go.
Can a Tesla charger charge other cars?
Lightning fast, Tesla’s Superchargers can give you 320km of range in just 15 minutes. When your electric car needs a boost, they are ultra-advantageous. Canberra has one Tesla Supercharger site with six charging points, located at Majura Park.
While non-Tesla cars cannot currently use Superchargers in Australia, Tesla is currently enhancing its global Supercharger network. With a pilot scheme rolled out in Europe that allows other EV drivers to use Superchargers, Tesla plans to expand this globally so that other EVs will be able to recharge using a Supercharger in future.
