FILE - A vehicle charges at a Tesla Supercharger station in Detroit, Nov. 16, 2022. Elon Musks move to lay off the department responsible for Teslas electric vehicle charging network has touched off worries in the auto industry about plans to open the chargers to EVs made by other automakers. Several leaders of Teslas Supercharger team posted social media messages saying they were told Monday, April 29, 2024 that entire group of about 500 had been eliminated by CEO Musk.
Cutting the charging department raised questions in the industry about whether adding EVs from other automakers would work with no staff to support the changes. But Ford, theGeneral Motors was a little more cautious. “We are continuing to monitor the situation regarding changes to the Supercharger team and the potential impacts,” it said in a statement.
Sam Abuelsamid, principal e-mobility research analyst for Guidehouse Insights, said Musk's decision is puzzling because gutting the charging department comes just as hardware and software from other automakers is being integrated into Tesla's network. “To do that and maintain that, you need to have a staff that can go out there and keep the hardware running, keep the software working,” he said.
