The USA and certain European locations also boast extensive networks, although the exact number of stations with over 100 stalls outside Germany remains unspecified in the provided data.
The Tesla Model Y continues to perform well on the global stage. In January 2025, it was the third most-sold EV in Europe, with 5,890 sales across the continent. In China, it ranked third as well, with 25,694 sales.
Tesla's focus on attracting top talent is evident in the compensation packages offered to its employees. Software engineers, for instance, can expect a median package totalling $198,000. For those working in the US on an H1-B visa, the median base salary is $145,805.
As Tesla continues to grow and innovate, it remains a driving force in the transition towards sustainable transportation. With its expanding employee base, growing manufacturing facilities, and extensive Supercharger network, the company is well-positioned to lead the way in the EV revolution.
