Superchargers in Southern California (location speculation)

Burbank should work for you once it's open, which could be any time now.

 

Great work!

I am curious, if this will be completed in the next 3 months (2015), shouldn't there be some permits pulled or some type of pre-installation activity? Randy S.....can you comment on these?

It is great to see them putting this out there, but I have a hunch that 2015 means 2016 on these three dots......we will see

 

I hope that Tesla soon provides some zoom capability on their "coming soon" map because it is becoming very difficult to determine even approximately where the next Superchargers are going to be located.

 

I doubt you'll ever see zoom on those maps. I'm sure the difficulty of determining future locations is intentional.

 

You can do a little better by looking at the source JPEG. Take a look at: Tesla North America Map - Full Resolution

 

Can we charge at the Brea Mall? From what I thought it was for the "dealership" cars for the store inside.

 

How did you get the source JPEG for this map, and can you get this for future maps?

 

Cottonwood helped me figure out how to find the higher resolution maps from TM's site. I looked at the current map and compared it to the 2016. I placed blue dots over most existing SC's, and black dots over clearly yet to be built SC's. I did not mark Redondo Beach, Hawthorne and Culver City, as they are too close together to discern. In counting all the future SC dots, and subtracting the knowns, I see a net gain of at least NINE supercharger's in the So Cal region. This does not include Fresno, Mammoth or Santa Barbara. Most of these appear to be in either the 405 or 5 corridor.

 

Reliable sources tell me that Temecula could be heating up. Keep your eyes open for something in Temecula...

 

I'm not surprised at all. It's a great location with lots of through-traffic.

 

I'd be very happy with a SC in Temecula. I have been keeping my eyes open on the permits issued to try to pin point the possible location.
On another note, the service center in San Diego stated that there is going to be a service center in Carlsbad. Unless any of you have heard otherwise I'd feel that a SC could be incorporated into that project much like the Burbank service center. The map showing future locations does show something coming in that general area. We'll see....

 

Would be great to see one in Temecula!

 

And Malibu....

 

Shoutout for a supercharger in Palmdale, in the Antelope Valley. A gateway to Los Angeles, it is the starting point for the planned L.A. to Vegas high speed train. State fwy 14 and 138 converge there. The neighboring city is Lancaster, home to BYD, the Chinese company that manufactures electric buses being piloted around cities within LAC and OC. Hyperloop will certainly have a station there as well when it takes off.

 

Yep. Bunch of Tesla job postings for Carlsbad: Search for Jobs | Tesla Motors

 

Was at the Costa Mesa dealership today and talking to my owner's advisor, he said Tesla is setting up a SC station in Santa Ana. Any body else hear anything about it?!?

 

Thanks for passing that on. By "owner's advisor" you mean a Tesla employee?
I have not seen any posts about a possible Santa Ana Supercharger.
p.s. That would be the Costa Mesa "Service Center". It's not a "dealership".

 

Hi ecarfan, the Costa Mesa dealership is up-the-street from the Costa Mesa Service Center (approx. 200 yards). The sales person's title there is "Owner Advisor".
