Tesla opens supercharger in Scotland

Date: 24 October 2014   |   Author: Daniel Puddicombe

Tesla has opened a new supercharger location at Edinburgh airport, its first in Scotland.

The supercharger is accessible from the M8 and M9 motorways as well as the A720. It is situated in the car park off Almond street and will be available to use 24 hours a day.

It joins Tesla's existing network of eight superchargers in the UK - five in London, one in Reading and one in Birmingham, with more planned in the coming months.

Tesla allows its customers to charge their cars for free, for life as part of its offering and they can charge their Model S luxury saloon from a 0 to 170 mile range in 30 minutes.

 "We're really pleased to open our first Scottish Supercharger. The location makes travel in and around Edinburgh easy and also enables a route from Edinburgh to both Glasgow and Stirling and beyond," said Georg Ell, Tesla's UK country director.

"It's an exciting time for Tesla in Scotland. There are plans for an Edinburgh store and service centre next year, so watch this space for more activity," said Ell.

Tesla has opened 221 superchargers worldwide.
