Tesla has quietly switched on a public configurator for its Supercharger for Business program, and the numbers tell us exactly what it now costs a third party to buy into the network: $500,000 in hardware and roughly $940,000 all-in for a standard V4 8-stall site.
The tool also spits out ROI estimates that swing wildly by location — from a 4-year payback in San Francisco to 7 years in Manhattan — and effectively prices Tesla’s own cut at a flat $0.10/kWh.

Elon Musk claimed this week that Tesla’s “Full Self-Driving” is so much safer than human drivers that it could save 90% of the roughly one million lives lost in car crashes globally each year — a 10X improvement in safety.
The problem is that Tesla has never released the data that would support anything close to that claim, and Musk is already using it to pre-frame the lawsuits Tesla is facing over FSD crashes as an unavoidable cost of progress.

A newly introduced California bill could quietly reshape how passengers are carried on bicycles and e-bikes – and in the process, potentially outlaw one of the most popular features on many modern electric bikes.

Tesla stock is down roughly 20% year-to-date in 2026, and JPMorgan thinks the bleeding is far from over. Analyst Ryan Brinkman reiterated his Underweight rating this week and stuck with a $145 price target — implying another ~60% downside from where TSLA trades today.
The note landed days after Tesla disclosed a Q1 delivery miss and the largest single-quarter inventory build in company history.

In a rare bit of good news for the e-bike industry, manufacturers, importers, and advocacy groups have successfully fought off a potentially painful round of new tariffs on bicycles and e-bikes in the US.
