Tesla Malaysia has officially launched its first V4 Supercharging stations in Southeast Asia which are located at IOI City Mall in Putrajaya and IOI Mall Puchong. A total of eight V4 Superchargers and 2 Destination chargers have been deployed at the locations.
Tesla V4 Supercharger Malaysia Pricing
Similar to other Tesla Supercharger sites, the Superchargers (DC chargers) at IOI City Mall and IOI Mall Puchong are priced at RM1.25 per kWh. An idle fee of up to RM4.00 will be imposed if the charging station is 100% occupied and the vehicle is not moved after charging is completed. Meanwhile, the Destination chargers (AC Charge points) are still free until further notice.
The V4 Tesla Supercharger are capable of delivering peak DC charging rates of up to 250kW. According to Tesla, the Tesla Model 3 Long Range can recharge with up to 282km of range in 15 minutes with these chargers.
Unlike the current V3 Superchargers which have been deployed in other locations, the new V4 version comes with a longer cable, making it easier to charge other EVs when the charging network is open to other EV brands. At the moment, Tesla chargers are exclusive to Tesla vehicles only.
One major advantage of the Tesla Supercharger network is the ease of charging. Tesla drivers can simply “Plug and Charge” without the need to use an app or payment cards. The EV charging sessions will be charged directly to your saved payment card in your Tesla account.
Tesla Malaysia has now 48 Supercharger
At the moment, Tesla has opened 10 Supercharging stations in Malaysia (48 Supercharger stalls) and 11 Destination Charger stations (57 chargers). Under its Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) Global Program with MITI, Tesla is required to deploy 50 Superchargers by 2026 and 15% of them must be open to all EVs.
