Ford fulfilled its promise and has now sent out all 140,000 complementary NACS adapters, unlocking access to Tesla Superchargers for its EV drivers. With North America\u2019s largest integrated EV public charging network, Ford<\/a> says this is only the beginning.<\/p>\n

Ford launches new NACS adapter for EV drivers<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s been almost a year since CEO Jim Farley announced on X<\/a> with Elon Musk that Ford would become the first automaker to access the Tesla Supercharger network in the US.<\/p>\n

Since new models with a native NACS port would not arrive for another few years, Ford offered drivers a free adapter.<\/p>\n

After launching the program early last year, Farley wrote a personal note on every box shipped out, celebrating the milestone. <\/p>\n

Ford EV drivers now have access to over 20,000 Superchargers, up from 15,300 since just last year. The company said a growing number of drivers are taking advantage of the network. In February, Tesla Superchargers accounted for almost 20% of all public charging stops from Ford electric vehicle owners.<\/p>\n

With over 180,000 chargers at over 50,000 locations, Ford\u2019s BlueOval Charge Network<\/a> is North America\u2019s largest public integrated charging network. That\u2019s 40% more than early 2024.<\/p>\n

The network now has over 44,000 DC fast chargers, 53% more than last year. Ford is also working to improve uptime and reliability. In February 2025, Ford had its highest first-time charge success rate.<\/p>\n

To make it even easier, the company launched its new Ford Fast Charging Adapter. The NACS adapter was co-developed with Lectron so it could scale up production and get products into customer hands quicker. If interested, you can purchase the new Ford Fast Charging Adapter here<\/a> for $200.<\/p>\n

According to Suzanne Robinson, who helped develop the adapter, it\u2019s built to last with \u201crobust sealing\u201d and durable materials, because Ford knows it will likely be dropped (at least) a few times.<\/p>\n
