Tesla is intensifying its cost-cutting measures by laying off its entire Supercharging team, about 500 employees, and the executive overseeing the adoption of the North American Charging Standard (NACS). Electrek reports that while most of the Supercharging team will be affected, some members will be moved to different roles within the company.
