Tesla has launched its first V3 Superchargers in Singapore as the automaker prepares for initial deliveries in the country.

As Tesla has expanded its vehicle deliveries and production to other regions outside of the United States, the company has also increased its footprint for its charging infrastructure. Fitting for the world’s largest electric car company, Tesla also has the largest EV charging infrastructure with over 25,000 locations worldwide.

Now, Tesla has opened its first V3 Supercharger in Singapore, preparing for the first deliveries of its vehicles in the country.

The announcement was made by Christopher Bousigues, Tesla’s Country Manager for Singapore. Bousigues made the announcement on his LinkedIn.

“Delighted to announce that ahead of deliveries beginning soon in Singapore, we have launched the first Tesla V3 Supercharger in South East Asia today,” Bousigues said. “We want to thank LTA and Minister S Iswaran for their support in launching the Sandbox program as part of the mission of accelerating the world, and Singapore’s, transition to sustainable energy.”

The Supercharger is located at Orchard Central, a massive shopping mall in Singapore. The charging points are located on the ninth level of the facility.

According to a report from Singapore media outlet The Straits Times, Tesla has three V3 Superchargers installed at the location. More will be installed in the coming months, the report added.

Singapore Transport Minister S. Iswaran commented on the installation of the V3 Superchargers from Tesla, indicating that a regulatory process approved the EV chargers from the Land Transport Authority (LTA). Additionally, the Transport Minister added that the LTA is attempting to have companies submit applications for EV charger installations through the Electric Vehicle Common Charger Grant (ECCG). The applications are being reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

“As non-landed private residences (NLPRs) form a significant proportion of residences in Singapore, improving charger provision is an important step towards improving the coverage of Singapore’s national EV charging network,” the LTA said in a statement. “Earlier this year at the 2021 Committee of Supply debates, the Government had announced a target to deploy 60,000 EV charging points over the next decade, of which 20,000 will be in private premises such as NLPRs, and 40,000 in public car parks.”

Tesla’s V3 Superchargers are the company’s fastest EV charging stations. When initially launched, the Superchargers had an output of 250 kW, allowing up to 1,000 miles of range to be added to a vehicle in an hour. However, CEO Elon Musk recently announced that Tesla would be increasing the output to 300 kW, increasing the charging speed even more. This rate significantly decreases the typical amount of time spent at a Supercharger.

Tesla analyst breaks down delivery report: ‘A step in the right direction’

“This will be viewed as better than feared deliveries and a step in the right direction for the Tesla story heading into 2026,” Ives wrote.

Tesla analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush released a new note on Friday morning just after the company released production and delivery figures for Q4 and the full year of 2025, stating that the numbers, while slightly underwhelming, are “better than feared” and as “a step in the right direction.”

Tesla reported production of 434,358 and deliveries of 418,227 for the fourth quarter, while 1,654,667 vehicles were produced and 1,636,129 cars were delivered for the full year.

Tesla releases Q4 and FY 2025 vehicle delivery and production report

Interestingly, the company posted its own consensus figures that were compiled from various firms on its website a few days ago, where expectations were set at 1,640,752 cars for the year. Tesla fell about 4,000 units short of that. One of the areas where Tesla excelled was energy deployments, which totaled 46.7 GWh for the year.

In terms of vehicle deliveries, Ives writes that Tesla certainly has some things to work through if it wants to return to growth in that aspect, especially with the loss of the $7,500 tax credit in the U.S. and “continuous headwinds” for the company in Europe.

However, Ives also believes that, given the delivery numbers, which were on par with expectations, Tesla is positioned well for a strong 2026, especially with its AI focus, Robotaxi and Cybercab development, and energy:

“This will be viewed as better than feared deliveries and a step in the right direction for the Tesla story heading into 2026. We look forward to hearing more at the company’s 4Q25 call on January 28th. AI Valuation – The Focus Throughout 2026. We believe Tesla could reach a $2 trillion market cap over the coming year and, in a bull case scenario, $3 trillion by the end of 2026…as full-scale volume production begins with the autonomous and robotics roadmap…The company has started to test the all-important Cybercab in Austin over the past few weeks, which is an incremental step towards launching in 2026 with important volume production of Cybercabs starting in April/May, which remains the golden goose in unlocking TSLA’s AI valuation.”

It’s no secret that for the past several years, Tesla’s vehicle delivery numbers have been the main focus of investors and analysts have looked at them as an indicator of company health to a certain extent. The problem with that narrative in 2025 and 2026 is that Tesla is now focusing more on the deployment of Full Self-Driving, its Optimus project, AI development, and Cybercab.

While vehicle deliveries still hold importance, it is more crucial to note that Tesla’s overall environment as a business relies on much more than just how many cars are purchased. That metric, to a certain extent, is fading in importance in the grand scheme of things, but it will never totally disappear.

Ives and Wedbush maintained their $600 price target and an ‘Outperform’ rating on the stock.
