Nissan’s electric vehicles are set to gain access to Tesla’s Supercharger Network, according to an update on Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS) page. Nissan, the first Japanese automaker to adopt NACS, announced its commitment to the standard last year.
Teslaās NACS page lists automakers whose non-Tesla vehicles will soon have access to the Supercharger Network. Nissan has now been added to the āComing Soonā list, joining General Motors, Volvo, Polestar, and Mercedes-Benz. Ford and Rivian electric vehicles are already supported, according to the site.
Tesla operates over 15,000 NACS-compatible Supercharger stalls across the United States and Canada, offering a significant advantage for non-Tesla electric vehicle owners, particularly on long-distance trips.
Nissan had previously announced that it would offer a NACS adapter for its Ariya all-electric SUV starting in 2024, with plans to include a NACS port in its electric vehicles for the U.S. and Canadian markets beginning in 2025.
āAdopting the NACS standard underlines Nissanās commitment to making electric mobility even more accessible as we follow our Ambition 2030 long-term vision of greater electrification. We are happy to provide access to thousands more fast chargers for Nissan EV drivers, adding confidence and convenience when planning long-distance journeys,ā said JĆ©rĆ©mie Papin, chairperson of Nissan Americas.
