The Electric Viking · Tesla's First PUBLIC Megacharger is HERE (And It Changes Everything) · 26 Jul 2026 podcast

It's a lot of benefits. matched

Much easier to drive as well. matched

Tesla unveiled its refreshed semi last fall, available in both standard range, 325 miles, and long range, 500 mile range variants. matched

That's EPA range, so it's actually real world range, even with a large trailer on it with a lot of weight in the back. matched

To support these trucks as they hit public highways, Tesla is planning to build pre-assembled megacharges to accelerate network deployment. matched

So sort of like, you know how Tesla tries to make things more efficient, it'll be able to very quickly and efficiently build out these megacharges by pre-building them before they actually take them to the site. matched

This factory-built ready-to-deploy strategy is very similar to the way that Tesla does. matched

Basically, it's able to manufacture and deploy its superchargers at a much lower cost. matched

It's regular superchargers for EVs. matched

It can do it at a much lower cost than its rivals. matched

Some people estimate up to 80% less money because of the way it mass manufactures them and makes them more efficient, and its whole production system is really, really efficient. matched

So they're doing the same thing, apparently, with megachargers. matched

When it comes to Tesla's superchargers for EVs, they have 80,000 stalls globally, 80,000. matched

That number is just incredible. matched

Tesla is going to expand the megacharger network to Europe. matched

So it won't just be North America, United States and Canada. matched

It'll be Europe as well. matched

There is no word yet for Australia. matched

Hopefully it comes at some point because we need this. matched

Australia really needs Tesla to come here. matched
