Hyundai is giving away free Tesla NACs adapters to its EV customers

Hyundai said Monday it will send customers who have bought or leased an EV before January 31 a free charging adapter that will let them access Tesla’s supercharging network.

The Hyundai-authorized adapter will give CCS-port-equipped Hyundai EV drivers access to more than 20,000 Tesla Superchargers in the United States, according to Hyundai. Free adapters will be available to eligible owners of the model-year 2024 and earlier Kona Electric, Ioniq hatchback, Ioniq 5, and Ioniq 6 vehicles. Hyundai said that model-year 2025 Ioniq 6, Ioniq 5 N, and Kona Electric vehicles are also eligible.

Virtually every other automaker followed, making their own partnerships with Tesla to offer customers a NACs adapter. Some, including Lucid, have made plans to integrate the charging port into future EVs.

The rollout hasn’t been as smooth as some hoped, with many non-Tesla customers still waiting for the adapters. However, some automakers have started to ship the adapters in recent months.
