NACS (North American Charging Standard) EV Charging Stations
There are 9,465 EV charging stations with NACS connectors across the United States.
About NACS
The North American Charging Standard (NACS), originally designed by Tesla, is becoming the universal EV charging connector in North America. NACS is smaller and lighter than CCS while supporting both AC and DC charging up to 250+ kW. Major automakers including Ford, GM, Rivian, and others have adopted NACS.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is NACS?
NACS (North American Charging Standard) is an EV charging connector designed by Tesla and now adopted as the SAE J3400 standard. It's smaller than CCS, supports both AC and DC charging, and is becoming the default connector for new EVs in North America.
Can non-Tesla EVs use NACS chargers?
Yes. Starting in 2025, many manufacturers are shipping vehicles with native NACS ports. Older vehicles with CCS ports can use NACS chargers (including Tesla Superchargers) with a CCS-to-NACS adapter, available from the vehicle manufacturer or Tesla.
Are Tesla Superchargers NACS?
Yes. Tesla Superchargers use the NACS connector. Tesla has opened many Supercharger locations to non-Tesla EVs through the Magic Dock program, which adds a CCS adapter. New Supercharger installations support NACS natively.
Is NACS replacing CCS?
NACS is becoming the dominant standard in North America. Most major automakers have committed to NACS for new vehicles. However, CCS infrastructure will remain available for years, and adapters allow cross-compatibility.
