Tesla Achieves Notable Supercharger Manufacturing Milestone: 25,000 V4 Models Produced
Tesla's dominance in the electric vehicle (EV) charging landscape continues to soar, with the company's Supercharging infrastructure showing no signs of slowing down. The latest development is the rollout of the V4 Superchargers, a significant leap forward in fast-charging capabilities.
As of mid-2025, Tesla officially launched its first batch of V4 Superchargers in China, marking the beginning of a global deployment. Key locations such as Shanghai, Chongqing, Gansu, and Zhejiang provinces have already been equipped with these advanced chargers, and further deployments in Beijing, Guangdong, and other regions are planned. China leads the rollout with approximately 80 V4 sites targeted for the end of 2025.
The V4 Superchargers in China offer up to 500 kW of peak charging power, double the peak output of the previous V3 units (250 kW). However, this maximum 500 kW output requires the new V4 Supercharger cabinet hardware. Without the V4 cabinet, the posts currently deliver a maximum of 325 kW.
The new V4 Supercharger stalls also feature longer cables and CCS connectors, making them compatible with other electric vehicle brands. In China, these stations have built-in payment terminals for use by non-Tesla EV drivers. Tesla has opened the V4 network in China to non-Tesla vehicles, including domestic brands like BYD and international ones like Ford and GM.
In the United States, Tesla recently opened a massive V4 Supercharger station with 168 stalls, designed to eventually reach full capacity by December 2025. Each stall is rated at 325 kW, with the site initially powered by a 1.5 MW grid feed to be expanded depending on demand and grid availability. Some stalls are pull-through style to accommodate vehicles towing trailers.
Tesla's internal roadmap calls for approximately 200 V4 Supercharger sites globally by the end of 2025. The first U.S. deployments of V4 Superchargers are expected in Q4 2025 in California and Texas, with early 2026 deployments planned in Germany and Norway. Typical V4 Supercharger hubs will have around 12–20 stalls and be strategically located along high-traffic corridors.
The V4 Superchargers align with new European regulations and are designed to support future capabilities, such as megawatt charging for the Cybertruck and Tesla Semi. Furthermore, Tesla's V4 Superchargers boast improved cooling systems and contactless credit card readers in select markets.
The global rollout of Tesla's Supercharging infrastructure is being supported by domestic manufacturing, with production of V4 Superchargers taking place at Gigafactory New York. The 25,000th V4 Supercharger stall was produced at this facility.
More automakers are adopting Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS), further enhancing the accessibility and utility of Tesla's Supercharger network for non-Tesla EV drivers. This expansion supports Tesla’s strategy to build the world’s largest and most efficient fast-charging network, revolutionising the electric vehicle charging landscape.
