60,000th Supercharger has just been installed (globally)

[Administrator]

Tesla Superchargers worldwide now number 60,000! This 60,000th supercharger also happened to be installed together with the 600th supercharger in Japan.

The 50,000th supercharger was installed just 400 days ago (on September 14, 2023). This makes for an average rate of Superchargers installed per day for the past 400 days.

Curious how they did the 600th(Japan) and 60,000th(global) in the same lot at the same time. One has to have been installed before the other, and that would make them one apart. I guess they could have installed the 600th(Japan) as 59,400, then wait until another 599 where installed, then installed 60,000th

Edit: I guess 600th, would have been 59,999, globally. Seems unlikely.

600th in Japan.

600th in Japan.

Right, but next to it is 60,000th global, that couldn't have been installed at the same time. unless 600th one was also the 59,989th - 60,011th globally (12 chargers at that station)

There are only around 600 posts in Japan. You're missing that the 600th in Japan was put into the same site as the 60,000th globally.

You do understand the number of posts in every country is a smaller number added together to make the global number, right?

I get that, do you get that for something to be numbered in the different numbering systems(global and Japanese) with the same number (not the same number, but significant number), to be very rare. Do you think they were installing the 60,000th, and it was a coincidence that in the same station, it they also happen to be the installing the 600th in Japan? And they were like, "huh, what an odd coincidence".

In that, maybe they chose to put them both in the same? Maybe.

But it's not that unlikely of a coincidence.

Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe it was a planned coincidence, maybe the two happened days apart.

The point is how many have been installed.

Why is basic math so hard?

You can clearly see in the pics 600 in Japan sits one over from 60,000 global. That doesn't mean #600 is >1 away from 60,000.

It has nothing to do with math, it was just a ( what I thought) fun observation. It is most likely not the actual 60,000th, it even says it “commemorating” the 60,000th charging post. Which was my point, that it’s actually the 60,000th and/or 600th together.

The charger to the right is out of place.
