Tesla opens its Supercharger network to other EVs

San Francisco : Electric vehicle maker Tesla has launched a pilot program for non-Tesla electric vehicles to use its Supercharger network for the first time.
Initially, only 10 Supercharger stations in the Netherlands will be available to non-Tesla EVs.
“Ten stations are now accessible to Dutch Non-Tesla EV drivers via the Tesla app (version 4.2.3 or higher). Tesla drivers can continue to use these stations as they always have, and we will be closely monitoring each site for congestion and listening to customers about their experiences,” the company said in a statement.
Tesla has more than 25,000 superchargers installed around the world and first began building out its supercharger network in 2012.

This move directly supports our mission to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy,” the company added.
Musk has long spoken about the idea of opening up Superchargers to drivers of non-Tesla vehicles.
