Tesla Launches Virtual Queue for Superchargers
TL;DRAI · 60 sec read

Tesla launches Virtual Supercharger Queue at congested stations. The app notifies drivers of wait times, their queue position, and prompts them to plug in only when called, using location data. This eliminates confusion over charging order, which caused incidents like a fight over arrival times. Queues arise at sites like Lancaster, PA, though conflicts remain rare.

Tesla launches its Virtual Supercharger Queue to eliminate confusion over charging order at congested stations. The feature addresses incidents like a fight last year stemming from disagreements on arrival times.

When drivers approach a full Supercharger, the Tesla app displays a message using location data to notify them of wait times, according to Not a Tesla App. Another prompt asks: "There is a waitlist to charge. Are you sure you want to start a charging session now?"

The app informs drivers of their position in the queue and the number of vehicles ahead. It relies on drivers plugging in only when prompted. Tesla had announced plans for such a solution previously.

Teslarati reports queues at sites like Lancaster, PA, where confusion over order arises, though conflicts remain rare.

The Circuitry is a passion project I've always wanted to build, and I love the work behind it.

Running it costs real money. APIs, hosting, time. To keep improving the site and growing this into something useful for everyone, those costs have to be covered.

Any contribution is appreciated. If not, no pressure. Thanks for reading.

Waymo to Repurpose Robotaxi Batteries for Grid Storage

Waymo and B2U Storage Solutions announced a strategic supply agreement to repurpose used batteries from the robotaxi fleet for stationary energy storage on power grids. The deal could add hundreds of megawatt-hours of capacity to projects in California and Texas while extending battery usefulness in the same regions where the vehicles operate and charge.

Toyota Abandons Lexus LF-ZC Electric Sedan for 2026

Toyota has abandoned its planned Lexus LF-ZC electric sedan that was due by the end of 2026. The company will instead focus on larger SUVs while continuing solid-state battery and gigacasting development for future EVs.

Rivian Confirms June 9 Launch for R2 with Orders, Demos and Deliveries

Rivian confirms the R2 launches on June 9 with order invitations, demo drives at its Spaces and initial customer deliveries all beginning that day. The concurrent approach seeks to avoid criticism from the R1 rollout as the company shifts toward mass-market EVs.
