Tesla adds General Motors to growing list of companies that will use its Superchargers
General Motors vehicles will soon be able to charge at a large swath of Tesla's vast Supercharger network starting in 2024, theGM vehicles will have access to 12,000 Superchargers next year, the company said, with the automaker adopting the North American Charging Standard in 2025. It effectively doubles the number of chargers GM drivers have access to, CEO Mary Barra said.
It's part of a growing cooperation between Elon Musk and legacy automakers that will help bring them all to "equal footing" when it comes to charging, easily one of the biggest hurdles to mass EV adoption in the United States. Having most, if not all, automakers on one charging standard — with a universal connector — could be huge for driving sales.
"Consumers won't have to worry about what plug, what socket, which charging station," Tesla CEO Elon Musk said."This is a huge advancement for electric vehicles in North America." Tesla has also opened parts of its European charging network to other cars. Tesla has more than 20,700 Supercharger plugs in North America, according to the Department of Energy, making it easily the largest charging network.
