    Supercharger - Tenterfield, NSW

    The Tenterfield Supercharger appears to be near complete (from Trent Petronaitis on Facebook): Definitely appears to be 4 stalls, which would be the first V3 we've seen here with a non-multiple-of-3 size (assuming it is a V3, I suppose).

    Supercharger - Wollongong (Figtree), NSW

    Spotted by MM3 on Plugshare and confirmed by a worker, the Tesla Superchargers in Wollongong at Figtree Plaza are under construction. This is just off the entrance on The Avenue and opposite the existing AC chargers, as can be seen in green in the top photo below. This is the first site that...

    Supercharger - Scone, NSW

    It looks like Tesla continues to make moves in NSW, even outside of the state government grants! Proposal for a 6 stall in Scone, which was passed unanimously by council. In the same car park as the NRMA 50 kW unit - 167 Kelly St. There was also a comment: "Currently, the superchargers are...

    Supercharger - Melbourne (Box Hill), Vic

    Looks like we've got one of the Q1 2023 sites under construction. The Nunawading / Wheelers Hill site in Melbourne East. Matches the HomeCo Box Hill address that momentarily appeared a few weeks back, though that still has the seemingly spurious Wheelers Hill title. With thanks to Bruce on the...

    Showroom - Hobart, Tas

    Tesla job ads suggest a Tesla showroom coming to Hobart! No service related jobs listed yet, so it is probably just a basic sales focused centre. Our service ranger Will is doing a great job based on what other owners have had to say. No idea on the location yet - will keep an eye on recent...

    Supercharger - Mt Gambier, SA

    This photo was posted on Facebook showing a previously-unknown Supercharger site under construction at Ramsay Avenue, Mt Gambier: There's 6 parking spots there, but only three charging posts visible in the picture so far.

    The future of CHADEMO in Australia

    Bloody Chademo plugs! More dual charger sites made into effective single charger sites because 95% of EVs in Australia use CCS and probably 99% by 2025. Hopefully they will rip out the Chademo plug and cable and install CCS in the near future when they realise that their dual charging units...

    Model Y Accessories for Australia

    I couldn't find an Australian thread for Model Y accessories. So opening a thread for all accessories for the RHD Model Y in Australia I'll start with a couple of questions that relate to hubs in centre console and glove box. I see these items listed for sale but I'm not sure what the benefit...

    Supercharger - Tuggeranong ACT

    Hey all, looks like a new 6 stall supercharger is being constructed in the Hyperdome in Tuggeranong, ACT At the moment the location is fenced off and signs are up saying it will be becoming Tesla Electric Vehicle Parking. This would help people travelling to the snow as they wont need to...

    Winter road trip in Australia

    Its my first winter in Australia owning an electric vehicle and my anxiety about range on my winter road trip was misplaced as all went well. I travelled on a 4,252km road trip in my Tesla 3LR Electric Vehicle, visiting places across NSW and Victoria. Energy used was 670kWh at an average of...

    Supercharger - Bondi Junction, NSW

    Waverley Council supported the proposal to host both a 2-stall Evie site and a 6-stall Tesla supercharger at their April meeting! http://waverley.infocouncil.biz/Open/2022/04/CM_20220412_MIN_655.PDF Probably some time away - but keep an eye out :)

    Supercharger - Albany, WA

    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...

    Supercharger - Griffith, NSW

    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...

    Showroom - Mount Gravatt, Qld

    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...

    Purchase Tasks - do these need to be done immediately?

    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...

    Supercharger - Brisbane (Indooroopilly), Qld

    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?

    Supercharger - Cann River, Vic

    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...

    Supercharger - Hay, NSW

    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).
  19. M

    Supercharger - Margaret River, WA

    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.

    What to expect taking delivery of your Model 3

    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...

    Supercharger - Tailem Bend, SA

    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 :)...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi All, Not sure if ‘allowed’ or worthwhile but thought I’d start an Australian ‘Model 3 Waiting Room’, as all responses with the LR thread I’ve been viewing appear to be from our US friends. So feel free to join and contribute here, and hopefully assist in consoling our fellow impatient...

    Tesla Store Canberra

    It is located on Bunda St, just across from Canberra Centre. Not listed on the website yet. Seems to be still in the fitout phase although there is a white Model 3 inside.

    Supercharger - Yass, NSW

    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 - Taree, NSW

    RVG trade in and tyre condition

    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"...

    Supercharger - Devonport, Tas

    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...

    Supercharger - Blaxland, NSW

    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.

    Supercharger - Brisbane 2 (Toombul), Qld

    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...

    Supercharger - Corio (Geelong), Vic

    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...

    Light bar upgrade in Aus: suggestions & where have you mounted your switch?

    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...

    Gold Coast Sales and Service Centre.

    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...

    Supercharger - Williams (WA)

    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.

    Supercharger - Mornington, Vic

    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...
