Tesla’s fastest Superchargers make their way to Canada

Tesla’s fastest Superchargers, known as the V4, have officially made their way to Canada for the first time, the company announced.

The first V4 Supercharger in Canada landed in Langley, British Columbia at a shopping center known as the Langley Bypass. There are 16 total stalls, and the site became active on August 30, Tesla Charging announced:

The expansion of the V4 Superchargers to Canada shows the automaker is not only expanding its industry-leading infrastructure on an international level, but the deployment of faster charging piles, especially outside the United States and Canada, makes the EV experience more efficient.

The V4 Superchargers first started rolling out in Europe in 2023, and introduced several new features, like the Magic Dock, which enabled non-Tesla electric vehicles to charge thanks to Combined Charging System (CCS) compatibility.

While charging speed capabilities topped out at 250 kW for the V4, the same as the previous V3 iteration, the current rating saw an over 30 percent increase in terms of amperage, going from 425 to 615. This was likely enforced to support 800-volt architectures, which will enable faster charging speeds despite the same kW rating.

Tesla’s Supercharger network is among its biggest advantages when compared to other automakers. It has tremendous uptime, an evergrowing footprint across the globe, and fast charging speeds to cater to the multiple makes of EVs that now utilize them.
