How big is Tesla's Supercharger network?

It depends whether you count stalls or stalls per vehicle. As of Q2 2026, the category note says Stalls rose from about 7,000 in 2017 Q3 to 82,357 in 2026 Q2 (chart 87), while cumulative vehicles per stall increased from about 37 to about 118. No Supercharger series is in the metric files. The charts use those note figures only.

Supercharger stalls

Copied from the Q2 2026 category note: stalls rose from about 7,000 in 2017 Q3 to 82,357 in 2026 Q2. The first bar is that "about 7,000".

What does the latest category note say?

This is the Supercharger Network note for Q2 2026, as of Q2 2026. It is quoted from the conclusions file. It is not a later quarter.

Q2 2026 note

Tesla has expanded its Supercharger network substantially, but not in proportion to the vehicles it serves. The expansion is increasingly concentrated in larger stations, allowing the stall count to grow without matching the growth in the vehicle base. Stalls rose from about 7,000 in 2017 Q3 to 82,357 in 2026 Q2 (chart 87), while cumulative vehicles per stall increased from about 37 to about 118 (chart 89). In the latest quarter, Tesla added 2,439 stalls (chart 88), yet quarterly vehicles per new stall were about 196, versus about 27 in 2017 Q4 (chart 90). Stalls per station also rose from 7.0 to 9.46 over the same broad period (chart 91). The figures point to a clear trade-off: Tesla is still adding substantial charging capacity, but each new stall now corresponds to a much larger vehicle base. The higher stalls-per-station figure shows that part of this response has come through denser sites, rather than through additions that keep infrastructure proportional to deliveries.

These items are marked TODO because the source files do not include them. Nothing here is filled with an estimate. TODO: publish this category's deck chart images. Those images are served only to members, so this page draws the public series it has. TODO: add a Supercharger metric series. The charts on this page copy figures from the Q2 2026 category note because the metric series file has no stall rows.
