In partnership with Tesla, Nissan will adopt the North American Charging Standard (NACS), providing its North American and Canadian EV customers access to Tesla’s Supercharger network. This collaborative effort supports Ambition 2023 – Nissan’s initiative to have more than 40% of its U.S. vehicle sales come from EVs by 2030.  

“Adopting the NACS standard underlines Nissan’s commitment to making electric mobility even more accessible… for Nissan EV drivers, adding confidence and convenience when planning long-distance journeys,” said Jérémie Papin, Chairperson at Nissan Americas.

Starting in 2024, Nissan will provide NACS charging adapters for existing EV models with the Combined Charging System 1, allowing customers to connect their current vehicle’s charging ports to NACS plugs at compatible chargers.

By 2025, Nissan will start offering EVs in the U.S. and Canada with a NACS port, helping to completely transition to the Tesla Supercharger network, increase convenience for drivers, and expand the number of public fast-charging locations available to Nissan EV drivers.
