GM and Ford EV owners are going to be the first to gain access to Tesla’s Supercharger network starting in February 2024.
Virtually all automakers selling electric vehicles in North America have announced that they will adopt Tesla’s NACS connector in future electric vehicles to take advantage of the Supercharger network.
Most of them have said that the rollout will take the form of an adapter in 2024, followed by a direct integration in new electric vehicles starting in 2025.
Now, we get new details about the exact rollout, thanks to the comments of a Tesla employee at a city planning committee for a new Supercharger station.
At the Farr West City planning meeting, Jenny Pretare, Tesla design manager of Charging Infrastructure, was asked if the new station is only for Tesla owners, and in her response, she revealed interesting new details about the rollout:
Our first car companies, Ford and GM, are starting in February of 2024. Once they have the charge port (probably meant adapter) and software to interface with our charging stations, they will actually be open to those vehicles.
This appears to confirm that Tesla plans to make an adapter available to Ford and GM EV owners as soon as February.
