Tesla Building World's Largest Supercharger Station
Tesla is preparing to build its largest-ever Supercharger installation in Yermo, California, featuring over 400 of its latest V4 stalls. The project sets a new benchmark for high-volume EV charging hubs and reinforces the company's dominance in North American charging infrastructure.
The new Supercharger station is part of a larger commercial development known as "Eddie World 2" and is strategically located along the heavily traveled Interstate 15 corridor, a critical route for millions of drivers traveling between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The area already has a significant number of chargers, but demand during peak travel times often leads to bottlenecks. This project will more than double the size of the current largest Supercharger station, a 164-stall "Oasis" in Lost Hills, California. The development plans for the Yermo location show a phased, six-stage construction process, beginning with 72 V4 stalls. Architectural drawings indicate the site will also feature amenities such as a Cracker Barrel, a McDonald's, a convenience store, and other restaurants with drive-thrus and outdoor dining. The V4 chargers themselves represent a technological step forward, capable of delivering faster charging speeds than the previous V3 generation. While most current Tesla models will charge at similar speeds, the V4 stalls are designed to support the 800-volt architecture of vehicles like the Cybertruck and future models, enabling a quicker turnaround. The design also includes longer charging cables to better accommodate a variety of electric vehicles from other manufacturers that use the North American Charging Standard (NACS). This massive expansion comes as competitors also scale up their networks. EVgo, for instance, is accelerating its deployment of NACS connectors and plans to have over 500 installed by the end of 2026. The company is also expanding its partnership with Kroger, aiming to install at least 150 fast-charging stalls annually at their store locations through 2035. Meanwhile, ChargePoint is preparing to roll out 600-kilowatt charging stations in late 2026, a significant leap in charging speed. A new player, IONNA—a joint venture of eight major automakers including BMW, GM, and Honda—is also entering the field with ambitious plans. IONNA aims to install 30,000 charging points by 2030, with some locations, dubbed "Rechargeries," featuring amenities like lounges and food service.
