This was sent to me 5 minutes ago, from Rivian.
We're collaborating with Tesla to open charging for Rivian vehicles at more
than 12,000 Tesla Superchargers across The United States and Canada.
Starting as early as Spring 2024, we'll offer an NACS adapter that allows you
to charge at Tesla charging sites. In 2025, Rivian will incorporate NACS charge
ports as standard in R1T and R1S, and offer a corresponding CCS adapter. No
matter which charging port is built into your Rivian vehicle, you'll soon have
access to over 25,000 DC fast chargers spanning Rivian Adventure Network, Tesla
Superchargers and other third-party CCS networks.
What is the NACS?
The North American Charging Standard is an electric vehicle charging connector
designed by Tesla.
How will I find Tesla charging sites?
Once the NACS adapter is available for your Rivian vehicle, we'll add available
NACS charging sites to Rivian's digital ecosystem including the Rivian app and
in-vehicle navigation.
How does this affect plans for the Rivian Adventure Network?
This collaboration does not affect our plans to expand the Rivian Adventure
Network to over 3,500 fast chargers at more than 600 sites. Having access to
Tesla's Superchargers adds even more flexibility and convenience for Rivian
drivers on the road.
This agreement makes electric vehicle ownership simpler by offering more ways
to fast charge your Rivian vehicle and supports our mission to decarbonize
transportation.
