Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, and Scout EVs will be able to use North American Charging Standard (NACS) charging ports from 2025.
On December 19, 2023, ``Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, and Scout Motors announced plans to introduce the North American Charging Standard (NACS) for future products in the North American region from 2025.
What this means is that in the future, cars from these manufacturers will be able to use Tesla's supercharger.
The day will come when you can charge your Porsche with a Tesla supercharger! !
I can't help but think that Elon Musk must be grinning from ear to ear, but anyway, with this response, those who drive cars from these manufacturers that require charging after 2025 will suddenly have more charging points. (More than 15,000 superchargers) There is a possibility.
Superchargers will be available in addition to the more than 3,800 DC fast charging locations currently operated by Electrify America and Electrify Canada.
Electrify America has announced that it will continue to support CCS (Combined Charging System) and will also work to provide NACS connectors at charging stations in North America by 2025.
The Volkswagen Group will continue to work to improve the charging environment through open standards and interoperability.
Rebecca Tinucci, Tesla's senior director of charging, said: "Manufacturers have come together around a common vision to improve the charging experience for all EV drivers, a move that will help accelerate the global transition to sustainable energy. This is just the beginning of an industry-wide effort."
Timo Resch, CEO of Porsche North America (PCNA), said, "We are proud to announce that we are partnering with Tesla to significantly expand our customer-friendly charger network across the United States in 2025." thing.
Details regarding future plans to integrate Tesla North American Charging Standard into specific models will be announced as the 2025 launch date approaches.
*Cars that have already been announced before 2025 will be supported one by one, so just because 2025 has suddenly arrived does not mean that all cars sold after 2025 will be supported. First of all, "new models that will be released from 2025" will be supported.
I think this is a good news for American owners of Porsche (and others from the VW group, etc.) as they will be able to use more charging facilities all at once.
Even across the United States, there are more than 15,000 superchargers available, and I'm sure many people would find it more convenient.
Well, I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be able to charge my Porsche with a supercharger.
Personally, I thought it was a very mature response for a Porsche ^^
