Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) has now installed 6,000 Supercharger stations across its key market in China. Tesla last month opened a new Supercharger factory just kilometers away from its Giga Shanghai plant.
Why It Matters: For readers unfamiliar with why the Supercharger is so “Super,” the stations are capable of providing a battery recharge for up to 200 miles of range in 15 minutes.
With more than 20,000 Superchargers, Tesla owns and operates the largest global, fast-charging network in the world. Superchargers, in large part, are located on major routes near convenient locations.
It’s no secret China has been a hub for sales growth for Tesla, as the company said in its annual report that 21.11% of its total global revenue of $31.54 billion for 2020 originated from China.
Rapidly increasing the presence of Superchargers in China would help Tesla’s brand awareness and customer satisfaction in the market.
