Tesla Motors completes West Coast supercharger route

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - People who own Tesla Model S electric cars can now travel from San Diego to Vancouver for free.

Tesla Motors has completed its West Coast supercharger route, which includes stations along Highway 101 and Interstate 5.

The company says the new stations give Model S owners the freedom to take road trips.

"Today we are actually launching the West Coast corridor for this, so owners can drive between San Diego and Vancouver, stopping in LA, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, wherever they want to go," Alexis Georgeson of Tesla Motors communications said.

The superchargers are located near amenities like restaurants and roadside diners, so owners can stop for a quick meal while their Model S charges for free.
