General Motors will team with Tesla to let owners of GM EVs use the Tesla 12,000-unit fast-charging network beginning in 2024.
GM EVs currently charge using the Combined Charging System, or CCS. Starting next year, GM said, owners will be able to get an adapter to make their EVs compatible with Tesla's Supercharger network, which uses the North American Charging Standard, or NACS.

Ford announced in May that it will be teaming with Tesla so its EVs can be charged on the Supercharger network.
General Motors electric vehicles will be able to use Tesla's Supercharger network starting in 2024, appearing to put Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS) on the path to be the dominant charging technology in North America. GM vehicles currently are set up for the Combined Charging System, or CCS.

GM CEO Mary Barra made the announcement via Twitter Spaces on Thursday. By teaming with Tesla, the company is expected to save millions on costs to add to its own charging infrastructure. GM currently has 134,000 chargers that are accessible through its own Ultium Charge 360 program and mobile app. Barra said in a statement that this pairing is intended to "help move the industry toward a single North American Charging Standard."
Barra expressed enthusiasm during the Twitter conversation for GM customers' added access to "12,000 Tesla fast-chargers. I couldn't be more excited for what this is going to do for customers and for EV adoption."
In a statement today, GM said it will start integrating NACS charging into new EVs it builds starting in 2025. In the meantime, it will provide owners of GM EVs with adapters to let them use NACS charging stations. The automaker said it will also make adapters available for those who own NACS-standard vehicles (such as Teslas) so they can use the CCS charging stations that already exist.
