Polestar electric vehicles to adopt NACS inlet in North America

Polestar customers in North America can now access 17,800 Tesla Superchargers as the brand complements its existing charging network offer in Europe and China.

Future Polestar cars in North America will provide an NACS inlet as standard equipment. 

Until then, Polestar owners can order an NACS adapter through their local Polestar Service Centre. 

In addition, Polestar’s in-car Google Maps will be updated to show all available NACS chargers.

“Our access to global charging infrastructure is a key differentiator for Polestar,” Polestar chief executive Michael Lohscheller says.

“Through our partnerships with charging providers, we offer our customers a convenient and unique charging experience: accessible, fast, easy to use and at a competitive price,” he says.

In Europe, Polestar Charge already offers customers access to one of the region’s largest charging networks, with 850,000 charging points, including over 20,000 Tesla Superchargers and the IONITY, Recharge, Total, Fastned and Allego networks. 

Polestar customers in China also have access to the Tesla Supercharger network across more than 200 cities.
