New Jersey Is Ripping Out 64 Tesla EV Chargers from Turnpike

Lucas Nolan 2 Jun 2025

The New Jersey Turnpike Authority has decided to part ways with Elon Musk’s Tesla, ordering 64 Superchargers to be removed from the highway connecting northern and southern New Jersey. The state is replacing Tesla charging stations with universal EV chargers from another vendor.

NJ.com reports that the New Jersey Turnpike Authority (NJTA) has chosen to use a sole third-party provider for its EV charging stations, resulting in the removal of 64 Tesla Superchargers from the New Jersey Turnpike. The decision comes as the NJTA opts not to renew its contract with Tesla, instead transitioning to Universal Open Access EV chargers provided by Applegreen Electric.

Tesla, in a statement released on social media, revealed that it had been preparing for this potential outcome for three years by building 116 stalls off the New Jersey Turnpike to ensure uninterrupted service for its customers. The company expressed its willingness to invest in New Jersey Turnpike sites if the NJTA or Gov. Phil Murphy (D) reverse the decision.

Can Jerseyans charge their own EV's or does an attendant have to do it for them?
