Polestar EVs Now Have Access to Tesla Superchargers, Future Models to Adopt NACS

Polestar announced today that its electric vehicles now have access to more than 17,800 Tesla Superchargers across the U.S. and Canada, marking a significant expansion in charging options for Polestar owners.

The integration aligns Polestar with several other EV manufacturers who have adopted Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS) for future models, providing seamless compatibility with Tesla’s extensive charging infrastructure.

Starting mid-November, adapters enabling Supercharger access will be available at Polestar Service Points, and future Polestar models will integrate the NACS port directly, eliminating the need for adapters.

“By offering customers access to the Tesla Supercharger network, we are able to provide owners with more charging options than ever before,” said Anders Gustafsson, Head of Polestar North America. “With the adoption of this standard, in combination with approximately 10,000 CCS DC fast chargers, current and prospective Polestar customers now have access to nearly 27,800 DC fast chargers and can feel more confident in their ability to charge on the go.”

Additionally, Polestar will update its in-car Google Maps to display all compatible charging points, enhancing convenience for EV drivers. Polestar joins brands like Ford, General Motors, Rivian, and Aptera, who have also incorporated NACS to leverage Tesla’s Supercharger network.

Initially announced in June 2023, Polestar’s Supercharger access was delayed but is now operational for all three current Polestar models.
