Future Supercharger Station discovered under construction at Wawa in Lady Lake

Copied from the public information section of the Florida Tesla Enthusiasts website https://www.teslaownersflorida.org/

One of our observant club members discovered an 8 terminal, version 3, Supercharger Station under construction at the Wawa at 116 N. Highway 27/441, Lady Lake, FL 32159.

The location is not currently listed on Tesla’s official Find Us page displaying “Coming Soon” Supercharger Stations.

Here’s a vicinity map:

The Wawa is located at the intersection of County Road 466 (Lemon St) and US Highway 27/441.  

Here is a Google street photo of the Wawa.

I have drawn a red rectangle where I believe the charging spaces are going. The street the photo was taken from is US 27/441. 

You can see the construction of the 8 charging terminals.  The box on the right is the type of main switchgear that Tesla is currently using.  The distinctive blue fencing is consistent with what Rack Electric uses. They are an electrical contractor that Tesla frequently uses for Supercharger installations.

Update as of August 14, 2020.

Progress is being made in pouring the foundations of the 8 charging terminals and installing bollards.

Some of the signage has been installed.

Under the tarps and protective tent sits the version 3 Supercharger cabinets.

Here is a close-up of one of the two Supercharger cabinets.

Rack Electric, Tesla’ electrical contractor, appears to be doing most of Tesla’s Supercharger installations in Florida currently.

Each box contains two version 3 Supercharger charging terminals.

If you work or live nearby, please periodically visit the site to take high-resolution photos of the construction progress and send them to me.

  1. We just cruised by the WaWa today to check out the new SuperChargers. The area looks entirely finished with 8 chargers total. 4 were hooded with “coming soon” signs the other 4 looked fully operational. We got a bit excited….but unfortunately they are not up and running yet. Soon….
