If you own an electric car, it is becoming more and more interesting to recharge it at a Tesla Supercharger station. Indeed, the manufacturer has just announced a new monstrous price drop, of 21% on average across its entire network in France. Rates which the competition will have a hard time matching.
Chances are, if you’re driving an electric car, you’ve already stopped at a Supercharger station to top up your range. Indeed, the Tesla charging network is becoming more and more established in Europe after having passed the symbolic milestone of 10,000 stations at the end of last year. And if you haven’t yet, we bet you’ll soon want to check it out.
Indeed, Tesla announces that the prices of its Superchargers have fallen by 21% on average in France. A dantesque fall which makes the tariffs per kWh more interesting than ever. So you should pay 0.35 euro per kWh in off-peak hours and 0.39 euro per kWh in peak hours. Remember that the manufacturer implemented a system of peak hours and off-peak hours last November at its charging stations.
Charging your electric car at a Tesla terminal is cheaper than ever
Again, this is an average, prices may vary significantly from one station to another. Likewise, remember that Tesla opened its charging network to competition last August, on condition of paying more. Motorists driving with a model from another manufacturer will now have to pay 0.46 euro per kWh in off-peak hours and 0.51 euro per kWh in peak hours on averagee.

Anyway, it is certain that the competition will grimace in the face of this announcement. By way of comparison, the Ionity stations have a price of 0.79 euros per KwH, against 0.40 per kWh at Lidl.
