Out of curiosity, where did that number come from? I can't verify it.

  Tesla has 20,000 chargers in the US. All of Tesla's competitors spend more than $100k per charger.

    Tesla has also substantially improved its costs, as it manufactures it's own chargers. Circa 2017, it cost them ~$250k per station from UBS' report [1], although it turns out UBS was wildly wrong about what the total cost would be for Tesla to reach the desired network density.

    Do they have 20,000? Where are you getting that figure from?

      US Dept of Energy. > There are 1,974 Tesla Supercharger stations in the U.S. housing 21,852 Tesla Supercharger ports, according to data collected by the U.S. Department of Energy. That’s roughly a quarter of all DC Fast (the quickest type of EV charger) EV charging stations in the country and nearly two-thirds of all DC Fast EV charging ports. https://www.fool.com/research/tesla-supercharger-stations/ https://www.fool.com/research/tesla-supercharger-stations/ https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/electricity_locations.html#/find/nearest?fuel=ELEC&ev_connectors=TESLA https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/electricity_locations.html#/fi...

        Yeah, and there have been ~200 more locations added since then.
