Increasing access to charging is a pillar of Tesla’s mission. Since 2012, we’ve been building the best charging experience in the world, achieving a 99.95% uptime. We engineer, manufacture and install Superchargers where drivers need them most. Superchargers were always intended to be made available to other EV drivers.
Superchargers make up three out of four fast chargers and have set the standard for EV charging in North America. This standard, known as the North American Charging Standard (NACS), has been adopted by all large automakers, with manufacturers and charge point operators transitioning to the NACS by 2025.
Throughout 2025, our North American Supercharging network is opening to more automakers. As automakers transition vehicles to NACS, EV drivers will gradually be able to access Superchargers using adapters provided by their automakers. Soon, all new EVs will come with NACS charge ports built in and adapters will no longer be needed.
