Motorway service station operator Welcome Break has enhanced its facilities for motorists by installing electric vehicle chargers at three of its UK sites and will add them to a further seven.
The Tesla Superchargers have been added to South Mimms, Hopwood Park and Oxford services; they provide 155 miles driving range in 20 minutes.
More than 100 Superchargers will be installed at 29 Welcome Breaks across the country.
Rod Mckie, chief executive of Welcome Break said: “We are thrilled to be the first motorway service station provider to offer Tesla’s cutting edge technology. Motorists will now be able to charge their vehicle whilst enjoying the comforts of Welcome Break at seven sites in the UK.
“Welcome Break is proud to be at the forefront of the UK motorway electric vehicle network, promoting nationwide the message that electric vehicles are no longer just for inner city driving, but can now be used to cover the length and breadth of the country, as well as connecting with Tesla’s large presence across Europe. The new stations at Welcome Break sites will open vast parts of UK’s motorway travel routes. ”
