Superchargers in Belgium and Europe

With the opening of this new station, Belgium now has 21 Supercharger locations. These locations are carefully chosen near strategic highways and are equipped with conveniences such as restaurants, shopping centers, and WiFi hotspots. Tesla's Supercharger network is the largest and most extensive fast-charging system in the world, with more than 15,000 Superchargers across 1,200 locations in 32 European countries. This network makes it possible to undertake long-distance journeys across Europe with an electric car effortlessly.

New Supercharging Membership Model

Tesla has recently introduced a new membership model for its Supercharger network. This model offers reduced rates for members, with Tesla owners automatically and freely enrolled. For other EV owners, a monthly membership is available for €9.99, or an annual option for €100, providing a 16% saving compared to the monthly rate.
