Tesla Supercharger in Italy
Updated March 2026
Tesla Superchargers in Italy offer up to 250 kW through CCS2 connectors, with most stations concentrated in the northern and central regions along the Autostrade highway network. Coverage is expanding gradually southward. Based on what our users tell us, Superchargers in northern Italy are easy to find and reliable, but drivers heading to southern Italy should plan their stops more carefully.

How to Pay at Tesla Supercharger in Italy

Tesla Superchargers in Italy cost approximately 0.55 EUR per kWh. The Italian average DC price is about 0.60 EUR per kWh, making Tesla a slightly cheaper option. Home electricity costs around 0.27 EUR per kWh, so Supercharging is roughly double what you would pay at home.
Tips for Charging with Tesla Supercharger in Italy
- You need the Tesla app or a contactless card at V4 stations to start and pay. Set up your account before crossing into Italy, or use contactless payment at V4 stalls.
- Northern Italy (Milan, Turin, Venice, Bologna corridor) has good Supercharger density. Southern Italy and the islands have fewer stations, so plan ahead.
- Italian Autostrade rest areas (aree di servizio) often have food and coffee. A Supercharger stop makes for a natural espresso break.
- Summer heat in southern Italy can also affect battery performance. Your car may throttle charging speed if the battery is too hot after sustained high-speed driving.
Common Issues
- Coverage gaps in southern Italy and Sicily mean longer distances between stations. Keep a comfortable battery margin when driving south.
- Summer heat can cause thermal throttling, especially after driving at high speeds on the Autostrade. Your charging speed may start high and drop quickly.
- Non-Tesla drivers sometimes have trouble with the Tesla app not recognizing the correct stall. Double-check the stall number displayed on the charger.
- Autostrade toll costs add up on Italian road trips. Factor both tolls and charging into your trip budget.
Italy has other fast-charging networks, especially along the Autostrade in the north, so alternatives are typically available if you need them.
