Several automakers have signed agreements with Tesla to adopt the new North American Charging Standard (NACS), which will give EV drivers access to Tesla’s Supercharger network. Now Polestar is the latest one, who has announced that it’s vehicles will also soon be equipped with the NACS charging port.

In mid-2024, Polestar will provide adapters to existing Polestar drivers, but starting in 2025 all new Polestar vehicles will come standard with the NACS charging port. Future NACS-equipped vehicles will also have a CCS adapter to maintain compatibility with existing CCS public fast charging infrastructure.

“This is a great win for our North American customers! We salute the pioneering work Tesla has done to speed up the adoption and increase the popularity of electric vehicles, and it’s great to see the Supercharger network being made available in this way. With 12,000 charging points today, a number that will only keep growing, this move will greatly increase the rate of EV adoption in a key automotive region,” says Thomas Ingenlath, CEO.
