Tesla has passed a major global charging milestone, installing its 75,000th supercharger stall worldwide, and the honour unexpectedly goes to Australia. The milestone unit has been set up in Hobart, Tasmania, becoming part of the company’s second site in the state and adding a uniquely local chapter to the supercharger story.

A glacier blue first for Tasmania
To mark the occasion, Tesla finished the stall in a special “glacier blue” colour, a shade that instantly sets it apart from the brand’s familiar red and white design. The Hobart site features four V4 stalls capable of delivering up to 250 kW, while the celebration unit includes a small plaque noting “Supercharger No 75,000” and the program timeline “2012 to 2025”.
It is a quiet, understated piece of global EV history sitting in one of the country’s most relaxed cities.

A network that has accelerated beyond expectations
Tesla launched the supercharger program in the United States in 2012, and for the first few years the rollout was steady. By 2017 the company had reached 5,000 stalls, but the years that followed saw enormous growth as battery-electric vehicles entered the mainstream.
Several recent milestones highlight the trend:
• The 60,000th stall went live in Japan in late 2024.
• The 70,000th stall was installed in Texas during the second quarter of 2025.
• Only months later, Australia’s glacier blue unit has become number 75,000.
Between June and now, Tesla added another 4,000 stalls globally, including more than 3,500 in the most recent quarter alone. This pace makes the supercharger network one of the fastest-expanding infrastructure projects in the EV world.
V4 technology pushes the limits further
The growth has been accompanied by a steady march in hardware improvements. Tesla’s new V4 cabinets deliver roughly three times the power density of the previous generation and allow twice as many stalls to be connected per cabinet. The system is designed to support future charging speeds of up to 500 kW and can scale as high as 1.2 MW for heavy-duty vehicles. These capabilities will become increasingly relevant once mass production of the Tesla Semi begins in 2026.
Worldwide, Tesla now operates more than 7,900 sites, which together form the 75,000 stalls available to drivers today, according to Supercharge Info.

Australia continues to play a role in Tesla’s charging story
Locally, Tesla still operates the largest fast-charging hub in the country, a 20-stall site in Goulburn, New South Wales. As the number of EVs on Australian roads rises, the reliability of Tesla’s charging network remains a crucial part of the public infrastructure landscape, especially on regional routes.
Seeing the company’s 75,000th stall appear in Tasmania adds an unexpected but welcome milestone to Australia’s EV map. If you find yourself charging at this glacier blue stall, you might be plugging into a tiny slice of global EV history.
