Tesla achieved a new record for net supercharger deployments in the fourth quarter of 2025. The company's full-year growth remained strong, though it did not surpass the previous annual record. This expansion underscores ongoing efforts to bolster electric vehicle infrastructure.
Tesla has rapidly expanded its Wall Connector for Business program, with more than 158 new sites coming online globally since early November, adding over 1,250 charging plugs at commercial locations. These installations, funded by businesses themselves, aim to attract EV drivers and potentially generate revenue for property owners. The chargers are compatible with Tesla vehicles and other EVs, broadening access to public charging infrastructure.

Hansshow has released the second generation of its NACS to CCS1 extension cable, addressing safety issues from the first version and allowing non-Tesla EV owners to charge more efficiently. The new cable, available in 5- and 8-foot lengths, supports higher power levels and is now open for pre-orders. While it promises convenience at Tesla's vast Supercharger network, its high price and lack of full certification raise questions about its practicality.
