Oshawa, ON (September 18, 2024) – Beginning today, General Motors (NYSE: GM) will begin opening up access to 17,800 Tesla Superchargers for its customers with the use of a GM-approved NACS DC adapter, a move that will help accelerate fast and convenient charging options for current and future EV drivers.
With the addition of the Tesla Supercharger Network, GM customers will have access to more than 231,800 public Level 2 and DC fast chargers in North America – a number which will grow as GM continues to help accelerate the deployment of infrastructure in communities and heavily-traveled corridors through its various charging collaborations. To access the Tesla Supercharger network, Canadian customers will be able to purchase a GM-approved NACS DC adapter for $310 at their nearest GM dealer later this year. Pre-order is available starting September 18, 2024.
“GM’s ongoing efforts to help accelerate the expansion of public charging infrastructure is an integral part of our commitment to an all-electric future,” said Shane Peever, Vice President Sales & Marketing, GM Canada. “Enabling access to even more publicly available fast chargers represents yet another way GM is focused on further improving the customer experience and making the transition to electric more seamless for our customers.”
The GM-approved NACS DC adapter has been developed to help ensure that customers can confidently charge their GM EVs at chargers that utilize the North American Charging Standard (NACS). Customers will be able to use their GM vehicle brand mobile apps* and the power of OnStar connectivity to seamlessly locate available Tesla Superchargers, check station status, initiate a charge, and pay for charging sessions.
Additional information about GM’s efforts to accelerate accessible public charging options is available on GM’s public charging webpage.
