Tesla has begun constructing the world’s first true V4 Supercharger station in Campbell, California. The company previously announced plans to launch the first site in Q3 2025, and work is now underway.
According to @MarcoRPi1, a well-known Supercharger enthusiast on X, the location was confirmed at Kirkwood Plaza, in front of Walgreens at 1600 W. Campbell Avenue. His post included map images showing the aerial and street views of the construction site.
What makes this location unique is that it will also feature V4 cabinets for the very first time. When Tesla introduced the V4 charging posts in 2023, they were not running at full potential because they were still powered by older V3 cabinets. The V3 cabinets capped their maximum charging speed at 250 kW. Even when they were updated to 325 kW for compatible EVs, it wasn’t maximizing what the V4 charging posts could deliver.
Tesla unveiled the more powerful V4 cabinets in late 2024. They can deliver a speed of up to 500 kW for cars and up to 1.2 MW for the Tesla Semi truck. They have a better efficiency rating and a smaller size, which makes installation easier.
