Armidale and Batemans Bay welcome V4 chargers

The regional town of Armidale in NSW now has a 4-stall V4 supercharger, live since 16 May. It’s located roughly 500 km north of Sydney, making it a key stop for EV drivers heading through the Northern Tablelands.

Soon after, a 6-stall V4 supercharger site opened in Batemans Bay on 22 May. A well-known South Coast destination, the town stands to benefit from increased EV tourism, with drivers now able to recharge while visiting the beachside area.

Both NSW sites use Tesla’s latest V4 superchargers, which come with longer cables. This is ideal for non-Tesla EVs, where charging ports may be located in different spots.
