Tesla calls for non-exclusive charging sites

EVWire brief: Tesla’s Supercharging Director, Max de Zegher, says that when landlords offer Tesla exclusivity — as in Tesla being the only charging provider in their properties — they actively reject it and explain their reasoning. “We encourage them to install as much charging infrastructure as possible.”

We personally believe this is the only (true) way to go about the mission. Any CPO pushing for exclusivity should be called out for hindering the mission they are supposed to fight for. Max seemed to agree, replying to this with 💯.
