It’s Getting Cheaper To Charge At Tesla Superchargers

• The Tesla Supercharger network's pricing is changing for the better.
• Several users have noticed the price per kilowatt-hour go down by roughly 7%.
• The change was confirmed by Tesla's Charging boss, Max de Zegher.

The Tesla Supercharger network is widely regarded as one of the best DC fast charging networks for electric vehicles in the United States. It’s a stress-free experience almost every time and there are stations almost everywhere.

However, there’s a price to pay for this. More often than not, charging at a Tesla Supercharger is more expensive than using rival charging operators like Electrify America, EVgo or ChargePoint, especially if you’re driving a non-Tesla EV.

Things are changing for the better, though, as charging prices at Tesla Superchargers across the United States and Europe have dropped slightly in the past week. The changes were noticed by @Electric_Maik on X, who posted several graphs showing the differences.

The price drops were confirmed by Max de Zegher, Tesla’s global Charging boss who was previously the Charging Director for North America.

“Some Supercharger price reductions overall,” de Zegher said. The goal is to lower the charging prices to accelerate EV adoption and to be financially sustainable by investing in the charging network, Tesla’s rep added.

Judging from the graphs embedded below, the price reductions aren’t exactly huge, ranging anywhere from 5 to 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, which amounts to a drop of around 7% depending on the location. That said, not all Superchargers are cheaper, so keep that in mind when setting off for your next road trip.

Another interesting piece of information revealed by Max de Zegher is that the Tesla Supercharger network delivered a record-setting 12 gigawatt-hours of energy to North American customers on November 30. That’s the Saturday after Thanksgiving when people were most likely traveling back home after the holiday.
