20 “Supercharging” Tesla Stations Soon To Open on I-95 in Madison

MADISON, CT - So-called “Supercharging” Tesla stations will soon be open on both sides of Interstate 95 in Madison.

Superchargers are under construction at the 95 Madison rest areas, both northbound and southbound, between exits 61 and 62. Both are 10 stalls.

Currently the nearest Superchargers are located in Milford.

Tesla supercharging stations charge support peak rates of up to 250kW per car. AModel 3 Long Range operating at peak efficiency can recover up to 75 miles of charge in 5 minutes and charge at rates of up to 1,000 miles per hour.

V3 Supercharging will ultimately cut the amount of time customers spend charging by an average of 50%.

Supercharger stations with V3’s new power electronics are designed to enable any owner to charge at the full power their battery can take – no more splitting power with a vehicle in the stall next to you. With these significant technical improvements, Tesla anticipates the typical charging time at a V3 Supercharger will drop to around 15 minutes.

Madison Economic Development Chair Ryan Duques can’t wait for the new charging machines to be operational.

“I'm extremely excited to see that Tesla is installing a reported 20 V3 Supercharger stalls in Madison. The installation, which is underway, appears to be one of the most robust V3 locations in the country,” Duques said.

“This commitment from Tesla to deploy clean energy infrastructure in our town further demonstrates Madison's prime location on the New York to Boston corridor. Madison will soon be literally on Tesla's highest speed charger map,” Duques added.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that he wants the Supercharger network to cover “95 to 100% of the population in all active markets.”
