Tesla has published a small but notable update to its Canadian Supercharger map for November 2025, adding just two new locations under the “in development” category. While not nearly as extensive as some earlier updates this year, the new additions target important regional travel corridors in both Western Canada and the Prairies.
As with all “in development” listings, neither site is guaranteed to be built, but their appearance on Tesla’s map signals serious intent.
Two New “In Development” Sites
The first new location is Sicamous, British Columbia, a key highway town along the Trans-Canada Highway between Salmon Arm and Revelstoke. Despite its small population, Sicamous plays an important role for long-distance travelers heading between the Okanagan and Eastern B.C., or toward Alberta through the Rogers Pass corridor.
The second new addition is Nipawin, Saskatchewan, marking another step forward in Tesla’s slow but steady expansion across the Prairies. Located about 190 km northeast of Saskatoon and near Tobin Lake, Nipawin sits along key regional highways that connect northeastern Saskatchewan with central parts of the province.
Until now, Tesla’s Supercharger network in Saskatchewan has been relatively sparse compared to neighboring provinces. Adding Nipawin suggests Tesla is looking beyond major urban centres and starting to prioritize smaller regional hubs that can support both local drivers and those traveling longer distances across rural routes.
The other part to Tesla’s map update is the removal of sites ‘in development’ as negotiations to secure a site have not been successful. However, unlike previous update, which typically see numerous removals, this update importantly has none, meaning Tesla’s work to secure additional sites is ongoing.
Smaller Update, Bigger Strategy
While only two new pins were added this month, the small nature of the update doesn’t point to a slowdown in construction. Tesla’s approach to expanding its Supercharger network is rarely linear. Some months bring a flood of new locations, while others — like November — are more measured.
The company regularly adjusts its map based on factors such as property negotiations, grid capacity, municipal approvals, and projected traffic patterns.
While the November update was small, Tesla has been working hard to start construction on new sites across the country. Over the past month alone, seven new Supercharger sites have begun construction in Quebec, Alberta, Nova Scotia, and British Columbia. Just yesterday, the company also opened a new Supercharger in Delta, BC, nearly two years after construction first started.
