Tesla is actively expanding its supercharging network in Chongqing, with V3 superchargers delivering 250kW peak power. These chargers provide a 250-kilometer range in just 15 minutes.

According to a Tesla representative, the company will soon expand its charging network by focusing on user needs and strategically installing new charging stations in high-traffic areas.

Tesla will launch several V3 supercharging stations this year, located in key business areas across Banan, Wanzhou, Yongchuan, Nanchuan, Jiulongpo, and Fengjie. These stations aim to provide convenient, fast charging while encouraging drivers to shop and enjoy seamless services.

Tesla entered the Chongqing market in 2018, opening 17 retail stores, including the world’s first Gigafactory-themed store and Southwest China's largest multi-functional experience store. These facilities are key to Tesla's expansion strategy in China and support the country's shift to renewable energy.

According to the China Automobile Dealers Association, Tesla's annual sales surpassed 657,000 units in 2024, marking an 8.8% year-on-year increase and setting a new record for the company.

The data highlights Tesla's ongoing expansion of its charging network.

This growth reflects Tesla's dedication to advancing EV adoption on a global scale.
