Electric vehicles are getting more popular around the world, especially it is now more common in the US than cars with fossil fuels. Also, the automakers are trying to improve this technology by collaborating with each other. Today, Ford and Tesla announced that Ford EV customers will have access to 12,000 Tesla Superchargers in North America to fast-charge their vehicles. Here are the details about the Ford and Tesla EVs…

Next-Generation Ford EVs will be charged with Tesla Superchargers

According to Ford CEO Jim Farley and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the next-generation Ford electric cars will be equipped with the North American Charging Standard (NACS) port, which is Tesla’s standardized version of the charging system. It means that new Ford EVs will be available to fast-charge in early 2024 with more than 12,000 Tesla Superchargers around North America.

Ford announces the new plans on its website:

• Starting early next year, Ford EV customers will have access to more than 12,000 Tesla Superchargers across the U.S. and Canada, in addition to the over 10,000 DC fast-chargers that are already part of the BlueOval Charge Network. This will give Ford EV customers unprecedented access to fast-charging
• Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning and E-Transit customers will be able to access the Superchargers via an adapter and software integration along with activation and payment via FordPass or Ford Pro Intelligence
• In 2025, Ford will offer next-generation electric vehicles with the North American Charging Standard (NACS) connector built-in, eliminating the need for an adapter to access Tesla Superchargers
• The reliable Tesla Supercharger network has already established charging corridors across the U.S. and Canada

Additionally, the American automaker will keep supporting its “BlueOval” charging network, which is planning to grow another 1,800 DC fast charging stations by early 2024. Thanks to this collaboration, it will be easier to charge the Ford EVs in some regions of the US. However, we are sure that the expansion will keep growing.
