Volvo and Polestar are expanding their electric vehicle (EV) charging options by giving drivers access to over 17,800 Tesla Supercharger stations across the U.S. and Canada.
After announcing a partnership earlier this summer with Tesla, we now have a more exact access date to Superchargers. Starting in 2025, new models like the Volvo EX90, EX40, and EC40 will include an adapter for Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS).
Current Volvo owners can also buy the adapter for $310 CAD from Volvo dealerships, with shipments beginning November 18, 2024. Plans to release a similar adapter for the smaller EX30 will come later, reports Tesla North.
Polestar models, including the Polestar 2, 3, and 4, will also gain access to Tesla’s charging network in 2025, making long-distance travel more convenient for EV owners. You just download the Tesla app to get started. Compatible Superchargers will have a built-in “Magic Dock”, that enables CCS vehicles to get a charge.
Drivers can use the Volvo Cars app to locate charging stations, check availability, and pay for sessions through one interface. Google Assistant in the car’s infotainment system will help provide directions to nearby chargers.
“Today we are taking a major step to providing access to easy and convenient charging infrastructure for Volvo drivers in the United States and Canada, furthering our commitment to EV adoption,” said Mike Cottone, President, Volvo Car USA and Canada, in a statement.
Tesla’s Supercharger network and NACS has become the dominant charging infrastructure across the U.S. and Canada, now integrated with multiple automakers to address the growing demand for EVs.
