Tesla's flagship fleet charging solution. One cabinet, two posts — up to 1,200 kW shared output. Built for high-volume freight depots and public corridor charging sites.
Tesla's depot charging solution for fleets. Two units, fully integrated — no separate AC-to-DC cabinet needed. The overnight "home charging" answer for heavy-duty fleets.
Tesla Semi charging stations are currently located at Tesla-operated Megacharger sites along major U.S. freight corridors. As of 2026, confirmed open public locations include Los Angeles, CA (the first public Megacharger outside a factory). Permitted sites filed in Texas signal rapid expansion along Southern U.S. routes. All confirmed Tesla Semi charger locations — open, permitted, and coming soon — are tracked on the map above. This is the most complete public list of Tesla Semi charging stations available, updated as new sites are confirmed.
The Tesla Semi Megacharger map above tracks every known charging location in real time — open sites shown in green, permitted builds in yellow, and announced coming-soon hubs in gray. The map is updated as new locations are confirmed through permit filings, fleet operator reports, and official Tesla announcements.

The Tesla Semi uses a dedicated charging system called the Megacharger, capable of delivering up to 1.2 megawatts of power — far beyond what any passenger EV charger can deliver. At peak speed, the Semi can recover enough range for several hundred miles of freight operation in about 30 minutes. That's the number that matters to fleet operators: the charge fits inside the federally mandated 30-minute driver rest break, meaning the truck and driver stop at the same time. No additional downtime.
At 1.2MW peak charging speed, the Tesla Semi reaches approximately 70% charge in 30 minutes. For a Long Range Semi with a 500-mile range, that's over 300 miles of range recovered in a single rest stop. For regional routes — which represent the majority of Class 8 freight — many operations complete a full shift and return to a depot charger overnight, making en-route public Megacharger stops optional rather than required.
Two charging strategies are emerging across pilot operators:
The Megacharger network is in its earliest phase of public deployment. The first public site outside a Tesla factory opened in Los Angeles in early 2026, delivering 750 kW to Semi customers. Permitted sites are already filed in Texas, pointing to expansion along Southern U.S. freight corridors. As mass production ramps through 2026, the network is expected to grow alongside truck deliveries — Tesla's infrastructure build typically accelerates once vehicle volume justifies the investment.

For fleet operators who don't need corridor-speed charging, Tesla's Basecharger brings the equation back to the depot. At 125 kW continuous output, two Basecharger units start at $40,000 — a fraction of the Megacharger cost — and deliver up to 60% of the Semi's range in four hours. That's enough for most regional routes when trucks plug in overnight and roll out fully charged every morning.
The Basecharger is a fully integrated design that eliminates the need for a separate AC-to-DC cabinet, supports open protocols including ISO15118-2 and OCPI, and uses the MCS 3.2 charging standard. Deliveries begin in early 2027. For high-volume depots that need faster throughput, the Megacharger Cabinet with two posts delivers up to 1,200 kW shared output starting at $188,000 — scaling all the way to 100 posts for large fleet buildouts.
