ChargePoint Ramps Up Production of Tesla-Compatible NACS EV Chargers
Innovative solutions include a first public fast-charging alternative for Tesla drivers
CAMPBELL, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ChargePoint (NYSE: CHPT), a leading provider of networked solutions for charging electric vehicles (EVs), is now rolling out NACS connector support for its AC and DC charging solutions, with much of the lineup to be delivered over the coming month. Cable conversion kits for existing DC fast chargers will be delivered to customers in November, offering Tesla drivers a public fast charging alternative for the first time.
“With more than 35 million historical ChargePoint sessions initiated by Tesla vehicles, we saw the need to offer native connector solutions for this large portion of the EV market,” said Pasquale Romano, CEO of ChargePoint. “Our support for both installed and new products opens up ChargePoint’s DC chargers to millions of drivers who have not yet had a fast charging alternative to the Tesla ecosystem, and makes their AC charging experience more convenient.”
ChargePoint’s lineup of NACS solutions bolsters the company’s commitment to delivering a seamless charging experience for drivers of all EV makes and models by being the first in the charging industry to ship a native DC connector that is compatible with Tesla vehicles. The lineup offers AC solutions as well, negating the need for a cumbersome adapter to charge.
