Phoenix to Long Beach on a Tesla Model Y

Planning a road trip from Phoenix, AZ to Long Beach, CA in a Tesla Model Y Long Range means one extra layer of planning most road trips don’t need: charging. Here’s how the route was planned end to end.

Supercharging Stations Between Phoenix and Long Beach

Here’s a comprehensive list of Tesla Supercharger stations worth knowing about along the Phoenix (85032) → Long Beach corridor. Distances are approximate and can vary based on your exact route, so it’s worth double-checking live availability in the car’s navigation before you rely on any single stop.

Phoenix, AZ → Long Beach, CA — the outbound route runs through the Supercharger network along the I-10 corridor, with stops spaced to comfortably cover the Model Y Long Range’s real-world range with a buffer for AC use and elevation changes.

Return Trip: Long Beach, CA → Phoenix, AZ — the same corridor in reverse, with the same Supercharger stops available for the return leg.

Alternate Ways of Planning EV Charging

Beyond a manually curated list, a few tools make this much easier:

• Tesla Find Us — the official interactive map of Tesla Superchargers and destination chargers.
• Tesla Trip Planner — plan your exact route with charging stops calculated automatically based on your car model and battery.
• PlugShare — a map of alternate, non-Tesla chargers, useful as a backup if a Supercharger station is busy or offline.

The short version: for a Phoenix–Long Beach run in a Model Y Long Range, the built-in Tesla Trip Planner gets the routing right almost every time — treat the manual list as a sanity check, not a replacement.
