Overview
- The first complete V4 site, pairing new stalls with V4 power cabinets, is live in Redwood City, California, according to Tesla.
- Tesla says the new hardware supports up to 500 kW for compatible passenger vehicles and up to 1.2 MW for the Tesla Semi.
- At launch the station serves Tesla vehicles only, with the company saying non‑Tesla access is expected after final engineering checks in Q4.
- Most current 400‑volt Tesla models remain capped near 250 kW, while higher‑voltage vehicles such as the Cybertruck can utilize the increased power.
- Tesla highlights a modular cabinet design—AC in, 16 power‑electronics trays, DC out—with two stalls per cabinet, higher power density, and promised gains in throughput, efficiency, cost and deployment speed.
