The Tesla Supercharger network is opening up to other EVs. But charging costs extra for outsiders.
Following months of anticipation, Tesla's industry-leading Supercharger network opened up to non-Tesla drivers on Thursday, starting with Ford vehicles. Now we're starting to understand some of the nitty-gritty details of how Supercharging will work for outsiders—including how much it will cost. Tesla is charging owners of other EVs roughly 35% more per kilowatt-hour , according to rates listed on the company's app.
Many Tesla owners bought their cars specifically because of the charging network, which is regarded as superior to rivals like Electrify America and EVgo both in terms of convenience and number of stations. Over the last year, practically the entire auto industry announced plans to switch over to Tesla's charging port design, now known as the North American Charging Standard, or NACS. Historically, only Teslas had the NACS port, with Superchargers offering a plug to match.
