In November of this year, Tesla announced that it would provide free access to documentation on the charging port standard to everyone.
Electric vehicles of the Volkswagen Group, which owns the brands Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, Bentley and others, can be charged at Tesla stations. The company’s press service announced this on Wednesday, December 20.
It was found that owners of released electric cars will be able to access the Tesla Supercharger network in 2025 using adapters. That same year, new cars will roll off production lines with built-in Tesla charging ports.
Electrify America, VW’s electric vehicle charging subsidiary, will offer plugs at its stations.
Other automakers such as GM, Rivian, Honda, Mercedes, Hyundai, Kia, Toyota and most recently Subaru have also made announcements about using the Tesla charging standard.
Stellantis, the parent company of many brands such as Jeep, Ram, Chrysler and Peugeot, has not yet announced the transition. The company had previously said it was reviewing the billing criteria.
Global automakers have significantly increased discounts on electric vehicles in an attempt to slow the waning demand for them.
Let’s remember that earlier the European Commission announced the launch of an anti-dumping investigation on the import of electric vehicles made in China. The EC aims to verify the fact that Chinese manufacturers of electric passenger cars receive government subsidies, which it sees as causing damage to the EU industry.
