Tesla will allow cars from other brands to use its charging stations in the next year. During his drive, he stopped at three different charging stations before he was able to find one that was compatible with his car. The move will make electric vehicle charging more widely available to EV owners and may help address range anxiety among some non-Tesla owners.

It all depends on the Tesla model you buy and where you decide to plug in, but charging a Tesla generally costs significantly less than refueling a gas car. How much does it cost to fully charge a Tesla at a charging station? At these rates, the cost of charging a Tesla is about three times cheaper per mile than the cost of fueling a gas-powered car.

It also plans to simultaneously expand its charging network with more than 400 charging hubs, including over 2,500 high-power chargers in North America by the end of the decade. Tesla, meanwhile, has expanded beyond its connectors to include CCS at some of its U.S. charging stations as the Biden administration seeks to provide billions in subsidies to expand charging networks.
