Hey there, Tesla fans! Let's talk about the recent developments with Tesla's Supercharger plans.

Tesla is already pulling back Supercharger plans after Elon Musk came in like a wrecking ball and fired the whole charging team.

In an email announcing the move, the CEO said that Tesla would continue building Supercharger stations that are currently under construction without further commenting on how the lack of charging team will impact Tesla’s plan to grow the critical EV charging network.

Sources familiar with the matter told Electrek that Tesla backed out of four leases for upcoming Supercharger locations in New York:

one in Maspeth, South Bronx, two in Queens, and one in Gateway Center, Brooklyn.

These were new stations recently announced to address concerns with overcrowded Supercharger stations in New York.

When contacted, Revel, which operates its own fleet of electric taxis and charging stations in New York, expressed interest in these sites because of their location and capacity for high-volume fast charging stations.

The decision to slow down Supercharger installations has sparked concern among Tesla enthusiasts.

Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
