0:56Now PlayingTesla, which is headquartered in Austin, is known for its sleek electric cars. The company led by CEO Elon Musk sold more than 1.3 million vehicles globally in 2022 and aims to sell at least 1.8 million in 2023. The first Blade Runner-esque Cybertrucks are slated to be handed over later this year.
But Tesla’s low-key and ubiquitous Superchargers, which now cover much of North America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East, are proving to be the shrewdest, and most strategic, product of all. Tesla dominates EV sales in the US and, not surprisingly, is conquering reliable fast-charging.
At the end of the first quarter, the company had nearly 5,000 charger stations and more than 45,000 charging stalls or connectors globally, according to company filings. Many are located off of freeways in shopping plazas, and they often have several stalls for charging.
