I see a lot of super chargers "coming soon in 2018". Have they been building these

[bottomsup]

as listed on the website or are they typically delayed? There are a few in places I am very interested

Don’t hold your breath. I’m not sure how confident you can be that those locations will come to be nor when. They also seem to be very general approximations for the location.

Not that there won’t be more SuperChargers...... Atlanta just got a new site with 20 stations, but it was never listed as a “coming soon” location.

I've found supercharge.info to be informative. They only show locations that are "In Permit" for construction, "Under Construction" and "Open" but supercharger.info showed me an open Supercharger location before the in car map showed me it. At least it's accurate.

Getting to be that time of year where they bump all the dates to next year...

That’s a good site - supercharge.info . Saving this. Thanks

For Atlanta, it only shows the real sites and none of those “coming soon someday maybe” sites. It’s also accurately showing our one Service Center’s restricted hours for their chargers.

From what I gather if it doesn’t say summer or maybe fall 2018 don’t expect it to happen in 2018. They are expanding quickly, but they have to deal with property owners, local jurisdictions and lovely power companies.

..and lack of cash ... which I hope will ease up early next year after some positive M3 cash flow and a solution to their maturing debt.

I would say 50% of the 2018 ones will be built by 2018. 90% by 2020.

They will add others not on the map too.

I've found supercharge.info to be informative.

Supercharge.info is a crowdsourced site, largely from discussion here on TMC. If you would like to learn more about any particular charger, click on it and select discuss. In many cases It will go to the thread here.

I enjoy taking the raw data from supercharge.info and plotting the slope of the annual growth rate. While there are definitely slowdowns in the deployment rate within the year (e.g., some observe end of quarter slowdowns, possibly motivated by the desire to show the best possible cash flow in the quarterly report) the trend, on an annual basis, is definitely trending upwards.*

*For you statistics minded people out there, the rate specified above is the slope of the linear trend line of the deployment numbers shown on supercharge.info, as calculated by Excel. For some years I captured and plotted monthly values and for some years I plotted quarterly values. As a result, my R-squared value differs for various years, ranging from 0.96 to 0.99+, which should be close enough to spot trending.

2019 the new 2018

Best laid plans...

Overall the Supercharger system is still the gold standard for the world.

Yes sir. I do agree. And it will take MANY years before anyone can touch it. Even if it is possible.

There are three Supercharger locations on Cape Cod indicated for 2018 including Falmouth. I'd love to have authoritative information as to whether any of these will be in place this year.

If you don’t see construction in progress, then most likely not in 2008.

No indication of exact location, so one does not always know where to look for construction in progress.
But, looking at local McDonald's, Dunkin Donuts & Wal-Mart -- no luck.

You might be able to check with local municipalities if any permits have been filed.

If you discover anything, then tell supercharge.info

It may be partly these reasons, but the V3 supercharger should also be coming out soon, so I'd imagine they wouldn't want to deploy a bunch of charger that will soon be outdated.

I think Tesla has slowed the expansion in order to boost their profits for Q3. Hopefully they can continue expanding rapidly in 2019.

They've built 3 superchargers within 10 miles of my house this year...

Thank you for the link! That is so helpful, it looks like the first supercharger in the eastside of Seattle will be in Issaquah about a mile from my house, nice!
