Ford and Tesla team up for EV charging compatibility.
TL;DR Summary
Ford will use Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS) port for its next-generation EVs, including the F-150 Lightning truck, Mustang Mach-E, and E-Transit delivery van, starting in 2024. Tesla will develop an adapter for Ford's EVs to connect with its Superchargers, and Ford will continue to support its BlueOval charging network. The move comes as EV competition heats up, with other manufacturers bringing alternatives to Tesla's top-selling Model Y and inching closer to an industry-wide EV price war.
