Tesla Malaysia has added to its Supercharger network, now with the latest V4 Supercharger station online at The Gardens Mall that is comprised of four V4 Superchargers and one Destination Charging point.
As with existing Tesla Supercharger outlets in the network, the latest Supercharger location delivers a peak charging rate of 250 kW DC, with pricing at RM1.13 per kWh and an idle fee of RM4 per minute. This Supercharger station aims to serve Tesla users located in the high-rise residential developments, as well as commercial and retail centres in the Gardens/Mid Valley area.
This joins the brand’s charging network in Malaysia that is now part of 14 Supercharging stations, comprised of 64 Superchargers and 15 Destination Charging stations with 70 chargers. Use of the Tesla Supercharger network in Malaysia is currently limited to Tesla vehicles, as seen by the “Tesla Charging Only” script on the parking bays of the latest location.
A requirement for Tesla’s AP exemption when its approval was secured under the BEV Global Leaders programme in 2023 was that at least 30% of its DC fast chargers (with a minimum of 180 kW) are open to the public, and for use by EVs from other brands from 2025, this year.
Given that the network of Tesla Superchargers in Malaysia is presently concentrated in urban centres, save for the Skudai R&R in Johor, there are yet to be other Supercharger stations located along highways.
For Tesla users travelling interstate, this would typically require departing the highway and entering a town centre to recharge their car. As most Supercharger stations are already located in built-up urban areas, Tesla Malaysia’s Supercharger network could do with more highway locations to facilitate easier long-distance driving. Thoughts, Tesla users?

Tesla should focus on building highway superchargers first, not urban. People can charge at home
