Owners of Ford Motor Co electric vehicles will have access to Tesla’s over 12,000 Superchargers in North America as from 2024.
Ford and Tesla have announced a tie-up to give the legacy automaker access to Tesla’s network of high-speed Superchargers.
Tesla announced last November it would open its proprietary charging design to other automakers and charging network operators.
A Tesla-developed adapter will provide Ford EVs fitted with the Combined Charging System (CCS) port access to Tesla’s V3 Superchargers.
Starting in 2025, Ford will equip future EVs with Tesla’s own charging standard, removing the need for an adapter for direct access to Tesla Superchargers.
Tesla had 17,711 Superchargers, accounting for about 60% of total U.S. fast chargers.
