- Tesla opened a new public Megacharger station in Bloomington, California, calling it the start of its Megacharger network for Semi trucks.
- The expansion supports the production ramp of the Tesla Semi, with high-volume manufacturing beginning in late April 2026 and a long-term target of 50,000 units annually.
- Shares of Tesla slipped 3% on Friday ahead of its Q2 earnings report, while retail sentiment on Stocktwits remained bullish.
Tesla said in a post on X on Friday that it has opened a new public Megacharger station in Bloomington, California, marking what the company’s team described as “the beginning of the Megacharger network.” The station follows the opening of its first public Megacharger earlier this year in nearby Ontario, California, and is part of a plan covering 66 locations across 15 U.S. states.
The expansion of charging infrastructure comes as Tesla ramps up production of the Semi, with high-volume manufacturing starting in late April 2026 at a dedicated factory near Gigafactory Nevada. The company expects to build “many thousands” of Semis in 2026, with a long-term annual production target of 50,000 units.
Several fleets, including original launch customer PepsiCo, have begun placing orders or expanding pilots. The Semi is available in Long Range and Standard Range variants, with a starting price of around $260,000.
Meanwhile, investors have posed questions about the progress of the Semi program and sought sales estimates and revenue outlook ahead of Tesla’s second-quarter earnings call next week. Shares of Tesla slipped 3% on Friday as investors awaited the report.
According to Tesla’s company-compiled consensus estimates, Wall Street expects total Q2 revenue of about $27.58 billion, up roughly 23% year over year, and adjusted earnings per share of $0.55. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around TSLA stock stayed bullish over the past 24 hours, with some users calling to “buy the dip” and expressing hopes for earnings exceeding expectations. TSLA stock has fallen 15% year to date.
