Tesla Officially Opens A Non-Tesla EV Supercharger Network In Australia
JAKARTA - During Tesla's last time, electric car manufacturer Tesla has been trying to focus on opening its Supercharger network for non-Tesla vehicles.
Launched in November 2021, non-Tesla Supercharger trials will continue to be extended to new locations and countries to support the company's mission to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy.
On Tuesday, January 31st, Tesla confirmed that it had expanded its non-Tesla Supercharger pilot program outside Europe starting with several stations in Australia.

According to Elon Musk's company, access to a wide, convenient, and reliable fast charging network is essential for large-scale EV adoption.
"That's why, since opening our first Supercharger in 2012, we have committed to rapidly expanding the network. Currently, we have more than 40,000 Superchargers worldwide," wrote Tesla.
With this trial, several stations can now be accessed by non-Tesla electric vehicle drivers in certain countries through the Tesla application (version 4.2.3 or higher).
Tesla drivers can continue to use the station as usual, and the company will closely monitor congestion at each location and listen to customers about their experiences.
"More customers using the Supercharger network allow for faster expansion," added the electric car company.
The goal is that Tesla will continue to learn and repeat quickly, while continuing to expand its network aggressively, so that in the end Tesla can welcome Tesla and non-Tesla drivers around the world.
With the opening of a test Supercharger network in Australia, the following is a list of areas that already have a non-Tesla Supercharger network:
