With the addition of the two new stations, Tesla Motors' Supercharger network now numbers 168 locations worldwide, making it the largest and fastest-growing grid of fast-charging stations. The new locations signify the American manufacturer's first move out of the U.K.'s capital city.
After it has opened two dealerships in London and delivered the first units of the RHD Tesla Model S, the company started working on its energizing infrastructure in the United Kingdom. Tesla Motors has promised it will operate stores and charging stations throughout the country in two years' time.
“We will open a store in coming months offer Midlands-based Model S owners a convenient local service," declared the brand's U.K. Country Director. “Both Hyatt Regency hotels offer a great base for Model S owners whilst charging. With everything from bars and restaurants through to business centres and gym facilities, there is plenty to keep you occupied for your 30 minute charge.”
As the man said, the recently inaugurated Supercharger locations are in the vicinity of the London and Birmingham Hyatt Regency hotels. The new Superchargers energize an important route between the capital and the U.K.’s second city, but they also enable Model S drivers to travel long distances from the Midlands to Manchester and London for free.
Compared to a traditional EV charging station, the Supercharger replenishes half a charge in about 20 minutes. In the United States and Europe as well, Supercharger sites are strategically placed along well-travelled routes to allow Model S owners to drive long distances with minimal stops. They are located near amenities like motorway services, restaurants and shopping centres so drivers can stop for a meal and have their Model S charged by the time they’re done.
