Tesla to Launch Novel EV 'Supercharger' Station Network; 'Free' Recharging

摘要

California-based electric-vehicle (EV) producer Tesla Motors announced September 24 that it will spend up to US$30 million to build a "Supercharger" EV-recharge station network that enables its "Model S" EV cars to travel about three hours at 60 miles per hour (mph) following a 30-minute battery recharge time. The first six "Supercharger" stations "will allow the Model S to travel long distances with ultra-fast charging throughout California, parts of Nevada and Arizona," according to Tesla.
