Elon Musk introduces the Tesla Supercharger and the first part of a national network which will allow the Model S electric car to travel long distances with ultra fast charging. With the Superchargers’ power supplied by solar energy, Tesla continues to move automotive transit towards a much more sustainable future.

i love this guy, and i am not gay
@darkerforest: you got the fucking point!!! haha
20 oilers are feeling the heat of real change
I think he is going very good, due the fact he’s alone on this way to inovations for a independent consumer and healthy world.
I want to buy Tesla in India, cant wait for this company to get to India
I hope he make a cheaper car soon im excited for that. i love to have those in my garage in the near future
its the same as the price of a luxury car! and they barely earn a profit…
Yea but for that price it compares to super german sedans. Don’t forget government incentives as well.
I want a model S!!
This guy Elon Musk is really changing the world
yea and it will cost you 30 or more bucks. No thanks Ill wait half hour for free juice.Gas is too expensive.
Buy a Model S and solar panels to charge it from.
You know I’ve thought about that a lot too haha, what if he could truly be as cool as Tony Stark! Smooth lines and a good lean look to boot. But it’s that very same stumbling on his words and stuttering that makes him seem so down to earth and human; he’s not out there to be cool, he’s out there to do science and do it big ;] I’ve kinda got used to it so I hope it stays! Let’s me know he’s still him and not another all-talker.
This is just for now bro, they plan to make a cheaper model in the next couple of years and a lot more charging stations, 3 hours was just an example you don’t have to stick to that; but hey, it’s not for everyone (: I look forward to seeing you jump on the bandwagon when they come out with something that’s truly beyond gasoline powered vehicles.
yeah but you’ll be paying for it
The free gas part is good. Although is it really free when you have to pay let’s say 20-40k more for the price of the car when compared to it’s gas counterpart? I think more realistically it’s like you’re prepaying. I guess I’m unusual but I don’t eat every 3 hours, I don’t need 5 meals a day. And on long trips I’d be happier to have something grab and go especially with quick healthy snacks. It’s certainly the best electric car/system ever offered but to suggest it’s as good as gas is BS.
Not free gas though. After 3 hours driving, im happy to stop for 30 minutes, get something to eat and have my car filled up for free. Imagine if all rest stops offered a free tank of gas with every meal!
If I had a choice of vehicles, I’d buy one of these!
Awesome 30 minutes to charge… oh wait I can get gas in maybe 3 minutes…
The cost of photo voltaic panels has dropped dramatically in the last few years. when those subsidies were set up, PVs cost about $5.00 per watt or more, now wholesale prices are down as low as $0.50 per watt. It makes sense that governments would rethink the subsidies because solar can now be competitive without them. The solar powered charging stations are a great idea. Go Tesla.
This is almost like a test of resisting corruption. Almost every person with idealistic visions eventually distorts them with the progressive onset of success. For him, it will be a continued battle against the stream of people trying to divert him for their own gains, and this source of pressure will grow exponentially once he is seen as a serious threat by others. His life is a very hard battle, but for the sake of his seemingly altruistic beliefs, I hope that he keeps his fighting spirit.
same lol
its too late for that,people are waking up already.
I love Elon Musk and greatly appreciate everything that he’s doing, but I gotta ask, does he have some speech impairment or something? No offense, but his public speaking skills are a bit below par. It would be great if he could improve them, it would only make listening to him more enjoyable; if the presentation style could be as outstanding as the content of the speech. Nevertheless, Elon, you are an idol to be revered for centuries!
This guy is one of the only existing challenges to my hetrosexuality.
