Tesla Malaysia has just announced that it will be expanding its charging network to five new locations in the country by the second quarter (Q2) of this year (2024). The new Tesla Supercharger and destination charger locations include one in Kuantan, one in Perai, and one in Putrajaya, as well as two new locations in Kuala Lumpur.
The upcoming expansion of the Tesla Supercharger network in Malaysia is a crucial one, especially in Kuantan, as this will prove convenient for Tesla owners travelling to the East Coast. Thus far, the brand has yet to announce the number of Superchargers and destination chargers it will be building at the mentioned locations.
As of today, Tesla Malaysia has opened 7 Supercharger stations consisting of 36 DC Superchargers, as well as 9 destination charger stations that feature 55 AC chargers in the country. This includes the Supercharger station that has just been launched today at Gamuda Cove, which is also the largest Tesla Supercharger station in Southeast Asia.
Aside from its new Supercharger stations, Tesla Malaysia also has two Experience Centres at the time of writing. This includes its headquarters at Cyberjaya, which also houses the brand’s sole service centre in the country, as well as Pavilion Damansara Heights. The company also has one outlet in Johor that acts as a showroom and test drive centre.
