How do I find (Tesla) charging stations?The easiest way is to search for charging stations in your Tesla and navigate directly to them. At the Supercharger all you have to do is plug in the cable - the costs are charged to our card and we pass them on to you at the end of the rental. You can find Tesla Destination and Superchargers online here. Otherwise, we recommend that you use the swisscharge.ch mobile app. To start the charging process hold your credit card up to the charging station or create an account.
