   Electric carmaker Tesla Motors is scheduled to open its first   
   Supercharger in Canada, located along the Sea to Sky Highway, the route   
   connecting Vancouver and Whistler.   
      
   The California-based company says the Squamish Supercharger station,   
   which opens Thursday at the Garibaldi Shopping Centre, supports   
   zero-emission trips between Vancouver and Whistler and allows owners of   
   the Model S to travel for free.   
      
   The charging station is one of 102 now open in North America. There are   
   also 32 Supercharger stations in Europe and one in China with more   
   planned to open soon.   
      
   Superchargers are designed for the Tesla Model S to travel for about   
   three hours.   
      
   Alexis Georgeson, a spokeswoman for Tesla, said at the end of the first   
   quarter of 2014, there were more than 30,000 Model S on the road   
   worldwide, however she said the demand exceeds Tesla’s production   
   capability.   
      
   The Model S starts at $80,000 CAD. According to the company, the car can   
   go from zero to 100 kilometres in as little as 4.4 seconds.
