Tesla Motors isn't just the brand responsible for the highly acclaimed Model S all-electric luxury sedan and the notorious Gigafactory, but also the company behind the fastest charging station in the world, both literally and figuratively. As such, the Supercharger network now celebrates its 200th operational site.
Located in Oxnard, CA, which is 35 miles northwest of Los Angeles, the 200th Supercharger station is serving the 19th most populous city in California and the most populous establishment in Ventura County.

Strategically placed near RiverPark mall off Interstate 101 and very near Cali Route 1, the newest operating Supercharger boasts with 10 fast-charging stalls and is opened 24 hours per day, seven day out of seven.

The American EV manufacturer informs its Oxnard, California Supercharger is also the 114th opened in the United States. With this new site, Tesla Motors is now operating 200 fast-charging stations worldwide, with 66 sites throughout Europe and 23 more in Asia.

Those of you that aren't familiar with Tesla Motors' Supercharger might want to know that this type of station allows Model S owners to recharge for free along well-traveled highways in America, Europe and Asia. Superchargers provide half a charge (equating to over 100 miles of range) in as little as 20 minutes.
