Jaguar Officially Adds Automotive Manufacturers To Tesla Chargers For 2025

JAKARTA - Jaguar is adding to the line of automotive manufacturers that will use Tesla's charging system, namely the North American Charging Standard (NACS), for future electric vehicle models.

That means, all levels of Jaguar electric vehicles located in North America will gain access to the Supercharger Network starting in 2025 without pairing an adapter. For the model before 2025, this British manufacturer will also use Tesla's adapter for the existing I-Face model.

Mark Camilleri, as Jaguar Director of Electrification Services, said the cooperation was a form of manufacturer's commitment to achieve zero emissions by 2039 and made it easier for Jaguar customers to access charging stations on their electric cars.

"This agreement will allow Jaguar drivers with vehicles equipped with NACS in the US, Canada and Mexico to use Superchargers without an adapter," Camilleri said as quoted by Teslarati, Thursday, September 21.

This luxury brand is planning to bring in more electric vehicles. With this collaboration, it helps manufacturers pioneer their strategy to create a global electric vehicle support ecosystem.

With this collaboration, Jaguar's electric vehicles can be compatible with Tesla charging stations such as Superchargers V3 and V4. However, these two systems have not been launched in North America. Meanwhile, the V4 charger was launched in Europe earlier this year.

With Jaguar joining, a list of automotive manufacturers who will adopt the NACS system continues to grow, joining competitors such as Honda, Volvo, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Ford, GM, Rivian, and Fisker.

Tesla chose to open cooperation to use NACS so that other brands have a network of access to Superchargers and encourage more consumers to switch to electric vehicles as soon as possible.

Previously, Jaguar confirmed that 2025 they would become electric vehicle brands. The company will kill all existing combustion engine models.
