Tesla Deploys Mobile Megapack Chargers for Holiday Travel Surge

Tesla has unveiled a new charging approach to address increased traffic during the holidays. Four mobile Megapack chargers have been deployed at heavily traveled locations across the U.S., including Bakersfield, CA, Primm, NV, El Centro, CA, and Cambridge, OH. These solutions, combining Megapack energy storage units with pre-fabricated Supercharger stalls, aim to support the surge in long-distance travel.

The mobile units offer up to 150kW charging speeds. The Bakersfield and Primm locations are additions to existing Superchargers, while El Centro and Cambridge are independent. Tesla has used similar mobile Superchargers during emergencies, such as Hurricane Milton in Florida, showcasing the flexibility of these units.

This innovation is part of Tesla’s broader effort to evolve its global Supercharger network, which surpassed 60,000 stalls worldwide in October. The upcoming rollout of the V4 Supercharger in 2025 will further enhance charging speeds, opening new possibilities for the Cybertruck and Tesla Semi.

Tesla also strives to make Supercharger stations friendlier for non-Tesla EVs. Plans include adding longer charging cables and building more pull-through stations to accommodate vehicles using trailers.

< Summary >

Tesla launched its mobile Megapack chargers to meet holiday travel demands.
These chargers were deployed across four major U.S. highway corridors, combining grid-scale batteries with pre-fabricated units.

Key deployments:

• Bakersfield, CA, and Primm, NV expanded existing stations.
• El Centro, CA, and Cambridge, OH introduced new standalone stations.

These stations feature up to 150kW charging speeds, reflecting Tesla's broader adaptation to mobility and efficiency needs.

Beyond temporary solutions, Tesla is rapidly advancing its Supercharger global network with improvements such as pull-through designs, longer cables, and preparing the powerful V4 units for 2025.

< 핵심내용 요약 >

Tesla는 연말 여행 수요를 해결하기 위해 이동식 Megapack 충전소를 도입했다.
미국 내 주요 고속도로 4개 구간에 배치, 대규모 배터리와 사전 제작된 유닛 결합으로 효율과 이동성 증대.

주요 설치 상세:

• Bakersfield(캘리포니아), Primm(네바다): 기존 슈퍼차저 확장.
• El Centro(캘리포니아), Cambridge(오하이오): 새로운 독립형 충전소 추가.

이 충전소는 최대 150kW 속도로 작동하며, Tesla의 글로벌 네트워크 개선 방향을 반영.

Tesla는 이동식 솔루션 외에도 2025년 강력한 V4 유닛 준비 등, 케이블 길이 조정 및 예고된 사이버트럭 급속 충전 향상에 대비해 기존 네트워크 개선을 가속화하고 있다.
