Tesla has built a Megacharger in Baker, California, a major route for goods deliveries between Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
Two keen-eyed Twitter users, @RodneyaKent and @Woodland_00, recently shared images of the Megacharger, sparking curiosity and discussion among Tesla fans. Let’s delve into the details and understand the significance of this development.
Located strategically on Freeway 15, between Las Vegas and Los Angeles, Baker serves as an essential transit point for goods deliveries. The newly built Megacharger has emerged as a crucial piece of Tesla’s charging infrastructure, facilitating long-haul travel for Tesla vehicles.
By the way, look at how Tesla Megachargers for the Tesla Semi look outside of Giga Nevada.
The Cybertruck Connection:
With the Cybertruck’s impending deliveries on the horizon, the Baker Megacharger seems poised to play a pivotal role in supporting the charging needs of Tesla’s highly anticipated electric pickup truck. This information was confirmed during the Tesla Semi delivery event, where Elon Musk and Dan Priestly announced the plan to utilize these Megachargers for the Cybertruck.
Dual Charging Ports:
According to insights from Tesla’s Semi delivery event video uploaded on YouTube, it is speculated that the Cybertruck may come equipped with two charging ports – a North American Charging Standard (NACS) port and a "Semi" port.
The inclusion of both ports will offer increased flexibility for Cybertruck owners and expand its charging compatibility.
Tesla Semi’s Charging Capability:
Although the primary focus of the Baker Megacharger appears to be on the Cybertruck, the possibility of these charging stations catering to Tesla Semis cannot be ruled out. As the construction site showcased a massive charging tool connected and ready to go, it suggests that the Megacharger might support both Cybertrucks and Tesla Semis, further enhancing Tesla’s logistics capabilities.
