Tesla is building what appears to be one of the first V4 Superchargers in the world in Harderwijk, the Netherlands, as spotted in a video from the YouTube channel electricfelix shared on Friday.
The video shows the site with the Supercharger stalls themselves wrapped and behind a fence. The station seems to have 16 stalls, according to the video’s host, Felix, and it’s the station is set to become operational later this year.
The location can also be seen on Tesla’s Supercharger map, saying that it’s targeting an opening date in Q2 of 2023.
The V4 Superchargers offer a higher peak charging rate, in addition to providing an option for CCS charging — a development that has surfaced with Tesla’s “Magic Dock” chargers in the U.S. in recent weeks. But in the Netherlands, CCS is already available for Superchargers V2 and V3.

Last year, filings showed Tesla’s plans to debut what was thought to be the first V4 Supercharger hardware in Dateland, Arizona, U.S., and the company’s map currently says its targeted opening will be in Q1 2023.
At Tesla’s Investor Day, the company announced it had already started installing V4 Superchargers in Europe with longer charging cables, and now we’re seeing the first ones in the wild. Longers cables will accommodate various charging port locations on non-Tesla vehicles.
You can watch the full coverage of the world’s first V4 Supercharger in early construction from electrixfelix below.
You can see from the video the longer cable and also a new charger connector:
