Nissan recently announced that its electric crossover, Nissan Ariyas will gain access to the Tesla supercharger in 2024. This step is an important milestone not only for Nissan, but for the entire electric vehicle (EV) industry, and cooperation between automakers in building a robust charging infrastructure The decision to charge Ariya with Tesla's famous supercharger will open up a new level of convenience for Nissan drivers, expand long-distance travel options and build charging stations for electric vehicles. It solves one of the biggest problems regarding the availability of the application.


Tesla NACS and CCS Adapters


The key to compatibility between the Nissan Ariya and the Tesla supercharger is in the NACS (North American Charging Standard), which Tesla recently opened for other manufacturers. To access the Tesla charger, Ariya owners changed the standard Combined Charging System (CCS) connector found in most non-Tesla electric vehicles to Tesla's own connector, which allows Nissan drivers to seamlessly connect to the Tesla supercharger and access fast charging speeds for fast charging during long car trips and daily commutes. You can do this by clicking on the button below.

The move is particularly true for North America, but could lead to further cooperation between Tesla and other automakers in regions such as Europe and Asia, where it has sparked global trends and charging infrastructure has also continued to grow rapidly.


Nissan Ariya drivers will receive a NACS adapter this year, allowing them to charge a compatible Tesla supercharger.Also, Nissan has another big announcement .


Of course, Tesla's access to superchargers will dramatically increase the number of public charging stations available to the Nissan Ariya. In 2025, the company will begin offering electric vehicles with NACS (North American Charging Standard) connectors for the U.S. and Canadian markets. The automaker does not provide further details at this time.


The other big news from Nissan today is the launch of the Nissan Energy charging network, which includes Electrify America, Shell Recharge, ChargePoint and more than 90,000 DC fast chargers in the US on the EVgo network. Nissan plans to add more networks in the future.

The new Nissan Energy Charge network will allow Nissan Ariya and "future Nissan EV drivers" to use the mynissan app to manage electric vehicles and public charging in one app.


The app allows drivers to easily find charging stations, check the availability of chargers in real time and pay for the charging process (it stores standard payment methods). As soon as the driver arrives at the electric vehicle charging station in the Nissan Energy Charging network, it will start the charging process by tapping the button on the screen. This new feature will be available to users of the MyNISSAN app until 2024-11.


Bad news for Nissan Leaf Drivers: This feature is not currently available, but you can search for charging locations using the NissanConnect EV and Service app.


conclusion


Nissan's decision to give Arya access to Tesla's superchargers from 2024 is a victory for current and future owners of electric cars. Nissan is taking a major step towards removing the availability of charging stations, one of the biggest obstacles to owning an electric car, by expanding charging opportunities and providing access to Tesla's extensive network.1 As more and more manufacturers follow this example, the electric vehicle market can meet the growing demand for more comprehensive, comfortable, and sustainable transportation solutions.
