We’re anticipating that Musk will reveal the details about his Master Plan Part 3, which will likely include massive scaling to Tesla’s operations and incorporating artificial intelligence into more areas. The Tesla community has been hyped up about the forthcoming Investor Day for some time. In late 2022, Tesla announced that they now have 40,000 Supercharging stations worldwide, dwarfing other EV charging companies. Opening Superchargers to non-Tesla EVs will undoubtedly add to the congestion and wait times, but the company seems prepared and equipped to handle it.

Many Superchargers around the US, specifically in California, already have issues with wait times. The official launch will likely be met with criticism from Tesla owners. The fees to charge non-Teslas are expected to be slightly higher than charging a Tesla. When the Austin-based company opens up select Superchargers to other manufacturers, it’s anticipated that Tesla will offer a “pay-per-use” and a membership option. Tesla’s official charging account on Twitter announced that they’ll be doubling their US network to support their growing fleet and add support for charging other EVs. Tesla has undeniably created the most reliable and resilient charging network of any manufacturer. The company recently added Australia, which joined France, Norway, Germany, UK, Spain, and others.ĭoubling the Number of Superchargers in the US Tesla has already opened its Supercharger network to non-Tesla vehicles in other countries. Until recently, it was difficult to gauge how many Solar Roof installations took place because Tesla bundled the number of installations with its solar panel retrofits, which are much more popular due to their cheaper cost. It's possible Tesla was waiting for the newer version of the roof tiles before resuming installations. Third-party companies, however, were able to continue installing Solar Roof.ĭuring the second quarter of 2022, Tesla installed 23 roofs per week or 2.5 MW, short of their intended goal. This is allegedly due to high cost, and issues with the roof tiles. CEO Elon Musk stated that Tesla was aiming to produce 1,000 new Solar Roofs per week by the end of 2019.Īccording to Electrek, Tesla halted scheduling solar roof installations across most markets in the US. The company has gone through a few different versions of the solar roof over the years, with Solar Roof version 3 launching in 2019. If implementations on employees’ roofs go well, we’ll most likely see an introduction of the new Solar Roof at the end of this year when they begin installations. It’s unclear as to what exactly the new features are in version 3.5, but the focus seems to be on durability and ease of installation.
