Polestar is the latest EV maker to announce a move to Tesla's North American charging standard

Polestar owners will get access to Tesla's North American charging network starting in mid-2024.

"We salute the pioneering work Tesla has done to speed up the adoption and increase the popularity of electric vehicles, and it's great to see the Supercharger network being made available in this way," said CEO Thomas Ingenlath. "This move will greatly increase the rate of EV adoption in a key automotive region."

Most non-Tesla EVs and charging stations in North America use a plug design called CCS, which stands for Combined Charging System. Recent studies have found that CCS charging networks have. Critics have also noted that the CCS fast-charging plug is significantly larger and heavier than the NACS plug, making it difficult for some older or disabled drivers to use.
