I missed this one for quite a while... Albany council meeting of September 2021 - records the fact that the CEO & Mayor signed an agreement to lease land in the "CBD Carpark" (I assume this is the one right next to the council offices and the Visitor Information Centre) for a 3-bay...

Looks like Tesla is planning one in Griffith - 6 stalls! Spotted by @MarcoRP - Site is currently being negotiated with council - Tesla prefers one location but council agenda recommends support of one of the other alternatives, which is the Visitor Information Centre - probably a good sign as...

Tesla has acquired the old Southside Toyota site in Mount Gravatt, South-East Brisbane. 1922 Logan Road, Upper Mount Gravatt Next to a Coles and the big Westfield nearby. Alterations to a Tesla showroom have begun. Per Nathan on TOA. Close to the Pacific Motorway and has a massive forecourt...

Hey everyone, ordered a Model Y on Friday and it’s prompting me to complete the purchase tasks. I was thinking of putting a personalised plate on the car but need to organise it - meaning I can’t complete the registration section. If I delay these tasks will it effect my order? or am I...

Second attempt at this thread (the now closed Toombul thread was originally called this). But Nathan M has posted this photo on the ToA FB forum. In Indooroopilly Centre on P1 between Coles entrance and carpark exit. Three boxes which might mean a 9 stall V3?

Another new find for today! Information is very limited - just this page on the East Gippsland Shire Council website: https://www.eastgippsland.vic.gov.au/public-notices/licence-of-land-on-ward-street-cann-river-area-for-ev-charging-stations I scoured their Facebook post history as well as...

A new Supercharger may be coming soon to Hay, NSW. I recently came across the Hay Shire Council minutes from April 26th, in which they discussed a Supercharger installation in the Caledonian car park (72 Lachlan St).

New 3 stall V3 reported as under construction at Margaret River in South West WA. About 110km from the existing Eaton site. And 270km from Perth which would enable larger battery cars to skip Eaton altogether.

With the impending arrival in Port Kembla of the first boat in 2022, I thought that I would summarise my delivery experience in November 2021 in case it’s helpful in knowing what to expect and the steps in the process. Your experience will differ (e.g. they won’t be telling you that “they all...

Here's a super surprise one from Tesla! 6-stall V3 supercharger being installed just outside Tailem Bend. I was a bit confused, it looked like it was at a racetrack in the middle of nowhere, but there is all the regular stuff there like a service station, Hungry Jacks, Wok in a Box etc :)...

Shire of Gingin has unanimously voted to support a lease to Tesla for a supercharger station at Lancelin (125 km north of Perth)...

Yass Council has supported a Tesla site https://www.yassvalley.nsw.gov.au/our-council/news/article/1322 Park and Ride seems to refer to a council carpark on Lead St, which is only a block away from the NRMA site and the main cluster of shops on Comur St. Looks like 6 V3s propsed At about...

Supercharger under construction as confirmed by Tippo from TOCA: South Village (Kirrawee) 580 Princes Hwy, Kirrawee NSW 2232 Someone who is nearby can go and get photos :)

Hi Australian Tesla owners, My name is Awatif Khalid Alotaibi from the Information System School, Queensland University of Technology (QUT). I’m doing a PhD research project for Electric Vehicle ecosystems. In this online survey, we ask questions about your electric vehicle adoption and issues...

Tesla is proposing a 6-bay supercharger site in Taree. They've been negotiating with council for a location. News story (paywalled for me): MidCoast Council considers Tesla "supercharger station" for Taree It will be discussed at council meeting today...

Thanks @moemoke! From thread: Superchargers in Australia

I'm up for an RVG and Tesla are saying that my (roadworthy with a few mm to spare) tyres must be replaced at my cost, and have quoted 150% retail to do it after returning the car. Has anyone had any dealings with the " damage and excessive wear and use based on Tesla’s standards for normal use"...

Australia... Sigh. :mad:

It looks like there are going to be two planned Supercharger sites in Perth within the next twelve months - one in Perth and this one in the northern Perth suburbs...

As mentioned in TOCA's April member update: Obviously Devonport was selected because it is the gateway into the state for Tesla owners bringing their car across on the ferry... not because of it's thriving Tesla population :) Precise location isn't public yet, but I couldn't go past the...

Many thanks to @Chenkers who found this one - shared originally in this thread: Superchargers in Australia Colac Plaza 144-158 Bromfield St Colac Vic 3250

https://www.bmcc.nsw.gov.au/media-centre/electric-vehicle-charging-stations-for-blaxland I still find it weird that this this location has obviously been planned for a while but it didn't make it into Tesla's 2021 map! This location has now been added to supercharge.info.

As a Q1 2021 opening, though worth adding a Brisbane (Indooroopilly) thread as the site should be set, and possibly beginning to start construction. Pin is in the middle of the Audi dealership which is likely. The Westfield just to the south would be a more likely site. Maybe a local could do...

As a Q1 2021 opening, though worth adding a Geelong thread as the site should be set, and possibly beginning to start construction. Pin on the Tesla site is shown to the SE close to the M1 in Highton, possibly near the Queen's Park Golf course. Spots close to that that might make sense would...

In response to a recent question on Quora about the inconvenience of charging on a roadtrip, I posted this response. As it seemed to elicit a favourable response I thought I would share it here, particularly as prior to my trip TMC members provided some very supportive and reassuring advice...

We are only just behind the Gold Coast, but the lease has been signed for an old Renault site on Scarborough Beach Road, Osborne Park. Google Maps

Hi guys After a few near misses with skippies late at night recently I'm considering a light bar for the model 3 for under the front bumper lip. The high beam I think is great for distance, but I'm looking for something to illuminate the roadsides - and the fog lights are helpful, but not...

Tesla just got the keys to their new Gold Coast sales and service centre located at Southport on the Gold Coast. It is the former Gold Coast BMW/Mini site. Superchargers are expected but it’s not confirmed if they will be for public use. (Probably will be). The location is expected to be...

It looks like Western Australia's Eaton Supercharger is going to lose its coveted most isolated Supercharger in the world honor when Tesla installs a supercharger station at Williams Woolshed early next year.

New store? On the Tesla website and recent post on Facebook suggesting the same.

Victorian Government is funding 15 charging stations in NW Victoria, as per this press release: New Electric Vehicle Charge Stations For North West Victoria | Premier of Victoria It's a bit light on details. But I've done the homework for you! No mention of AC or DC charging stations...

Looks like we have driven (and still drive) more during the pandemic compared to other regions.. Check Tesla's impressive chart of pandemic's impact on Supercharger use - Electrek interesting article.

No location confirmed yet, but @jamesgo appeared to have a bit of an insight, going by his comment from the Camberwell thread: Notably on Tesla's map, the marker is not over the generic place name, but the nearby highway intersection. Perhaps the Karingal Hub would be a good place to start...

Thanks to Mark G on the TOCA Facebook group! At Camberwell Place Shopping Centre. Looks like 5 stalls, bases only at the moment. Will post pics when I get the OK. Note - this is yet another site that Tesla would have known was going ahead before the end of last year, yet wasn't added to the...

Previously we ran the super successful ‘The Silent Highway’ - EV Rally, today we announced the next journey, the Brisbane to Byron - EV Rally! If you’re interested in attending, please visit the link below and mark yourself as coming along! The last one garnered plenty of positive feedback and...

Does anyone know who can do xpel stealth on model 3 in melbourne? I called house of tint and they quote circa $8500 for a fully body wrap which seems high; Affinesse doesnt do xpel and offers someother brand for $5900 with ceramic coating; VIP car detailing Moorabbin didn't know about stealth...

The rumour has been floating around FB the last few days... here it is from another source (twitter) with some additional details (apparently 6 stall). Tesla in the Gong on Twitter Apparently @TeslaGong has not seen the FB rumours so that's two different sources that appear to line up...

I noticed in a YouTube video, 2 x usb-c ports on the overhead dome light module. I'm curious to know if this is standard across all model 3s? or is it specific to america or other regions? do you have it in your car in aus? @7:52

Just picked her back up after getting the full XPEL treatment at Australian Detail Services, look how damn glossy she is - wicked! Can’t recommend Ryan & ADS enough, astounding finish.

For many years, Australia, as well as many other nations and states, have been struggling to fight fires with mobile ground assets. Most of the vehicles used are converted commercial trucks and pickups, that have limited off-road, or in particular poor sand driving ability in the bush. They also...

Hi all. Can someone please explain to me in plain English, why cant we have white interior on SR+ model, if the same option already exists on the performance model? I'm not asking for something that it does not exists in Australia. And it's also available almost elsewhere in the world. Is it...

Tesla’s giant battery installation in Australia is about to get a lot bigger.The Powerpack farm is already the world’s largest lithium-ion battery, but the plan is to grow it by 50%. Renewable energy company Neoen said in a press release that the Hornsdale Power Reserve will receive a 50...

Does anyone have any more info on when this is coming online? Tesla's site just says "2019" and that is apparently delayed from "2018".

Hey guys! Figured there's a lot of potential owners stalking the forums, so I thought I'd post my Model S that's up for sale since I've ordered a Model 3! Car is exceptionally looked after and anyone that knows me could confirm this. Comes with heaps of extras; PPF, Ceramic Coating, CHAdeMO...

Anyone planning on taking their Model 3 camping? I plan to take my little ones out for over night trips. I am in the process of ordering all the things I need to pull this off before the car arrives. The place where I am stuck is the mattress which is places across the boot floor and the folded...

Thanks to matthew on slack for the heads up here! Tesla approved to install 'superchargers' at golf club
