A new Supercharger is coming soon at Southwest Mall in McComb MS! Found this thanks to a Tweet from Stirling Properties in July, which announced that both McComb and Hattiesburg would be getting Superchargers. There are already photos of construction in Hattiesburg but none here yet so I’ll just put a blue pin for now. Enjoy!
McComb, MS Along Primary Interstates: I-55 Along US Numbered Highways (<=5mi): US-51, US-98 Along Auxiliary Interstates: None I-55 From: I-10 near Laplace, LA - 83 miles To: Pearl, MS - 79.4 miles Diversion: 1.4 miles To: Grenada, MS - 189.7 miles From: Baton Rouge, LA (I-10, I-12, I-55) - 95.5 miles From: Slidell, LA (I-10, I-12, I-55) - 105.6 miles Splits a large gap at the south end of I-55. McComb, MS plus something to the West of Memphis would "complete" I-55.
That works for me! Tesla still shows a charger "around" Brookhaven, MS....I bet it is the McComb charger
This is fantastic news! I live in Central MS and this should pretty much round out the state for me. I travel the state for work and getting to the southern part of the state a few times a year for quick day trips has proven nearly impossible. Happy these are finally breaking ground. And props to Tesla, on the "coming soon" map they had this one slated for Brookhaven and not McComb. In the past few 2-3 years the crime in Brookhaven has gotten really bad. I can't think of anywhere in Brookhaven I'd want to sit in a parked car for 30 minutes after dark.
That Plugshare listing got deleted, likely per Plugshare policy. I have created this one which complies better: PlugShare - Find Electric Vehicle Charging Locations Near You
Here are a few photos from last night (had my parents do a drive by since this is on a regular route for us to/from family also!). Looks like all that is remaining is installing the actual charging pedestals and wire up. And there's a large pad remaining, I assume for a pad mounted transfer from the utility. From the angle of the photos I can count 7 conduit stubs adjacent to 7 angled parking spots. So I assume 7 stalls? There's also an 8th conduit stubbed up to the right of the inverter island. Perhaps the 8th stall will be there?
It is 8 stalls, each of those v2 Supercharger cabinets shares 2 charging stalls (pedestals) and Tesla tends to put one stall as a pull in, and the rest as back-in.
Thank you for the update. I’ll be driving from Memphis to New Orleans today for a family event as I often do. I have to charge up 100% in Pearl, MS just to make it. No margin for error in Performance Model 3, especially in cold weather. I am very much looking forward to that McComb Supercharger.
Looks like a good location. Is that a Burger King nextdoor? I like the superchargers with shops in walking distance
I guess no Thanksgiving miracle on this one... I will be sure to bring a 120v extension cord for plugging in at my destination.
