Tesla opens supercharger in Maidstone

Date: 21 January 2015   |   Author: Daniel Puddicombe

Tesla has opened a new supercharger station in Maidstone, Kent.

The superchargers are located at Eclipse Park, which is just off the M20 at junction 7. The superchargers can be accessed from the car park, which offers free parking for Tesla Model S owners while charging.

Tesla said this supercharger gives easy access to the Eurotunnel and beyond to Europe.

The Tesla supercharger network now spans 17 stations in the UK, from Exeter to Edinburgh. The American electric car maker said it plans full UK and Ireland Supercharger coverage by the end of 2016.

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.

"The Maidstone superchargers are an exciting addition to the network, enabling travel through Europe from the UK and for our European owners to be able to drive easily into the UK. Currently, the European network extends down to the south of France and Italy, and up to Norway and Sweden," said Georg Ell, Tesla's UK country director.
