The company plans to open three more so-called "Supercharger" stations in 2021, for the exclusive use of Tesla customers, in Haifa, Beersheba, and Eilat.
The EV giant has also unveiled its prices for recharging its cars and, like the cars themselves, the prices are lower than expected.
Use of the charging stations will cost only one shekel ($0.30) per kilowatt-hour. This means that the cost of fully recharging a Tesla 3 model will cost around NIS 60-80 ($18-24), roughly half the cost of recharging electric cars at regular charging stations.
Tesla operates more than 6,000 Superchargers across Europe, including over 600 in the UK and Ireland.
