Tesla Hits 1,000 Superchargers in Australia With Special Byron Bay Installation

Tesla Australia has shared a new milestone on X. The company recently installed its 1,000th Supercharger, giving its customers more charging options along popular routes.

As posted on X by Tesla Australia, the 1,000th charger was installed in Byron Bay, New South Wales. The company wrote: “Celebrating our 1,000th Supercharger post in Australia with the opening of Byron Bay. This marks 10,000 km of major AU corridors accessible by the Supercharger network.”

Tesla customized the charger with ocean cliff, surfer motifs, and a golden plaque that reads “June 2026 – No 1,000 – Supercharger Post in Australia.”

Tesla’s Supercharger footprint has exploded in Australia over the last few years. The automaker commissioned the 100th site in September 2024 in Glenelg, a suburb of Adelaide, in South Australia. The 150th site opened in April 2026 in Pokolbin, New South Wales, welcoming non-Tesla EVs.

In between, Tesla opened what it claimed was the largest charging station in the Southern Hemisphere in Goulburn, New South Wales in 2025. The facility offers 20 V4 Superchargers and can be used by non-Tesla EVs.

EV charging infrastructure needs to grow, as Australians are increasingly adopting electric mobility, as shown by sales data. Retailers sold 515 EVs per day in April, significantly up from 29 per day as recorded in April 2022.

Tesla has been a beneficiary of the electric boom. The company’s Model Y SUV has been the best-selling EV for the past three years in the Down Under. The same car set a sales record in May by selling 5,605 units, boosted by the recently introduced six-seat Model YL.
