Mercedes-Benz is gearing up to enhance the charging accessibility of its electric vehicles (EVs) by integrating the North American Charging Standard (NACS) port into its cars starting in 2025.
- Universal Access: Gain entry to over 20,000 additional charging stations in the U.S. and Canada.
- Adapter Solution: NACS-to-CCS1 adapters will be available at dealerships.
- Software Update: Complimentary updates for access starting in February.
Mercedes-Benz EV owners will soon experience the convenience of using Tesla Superchargers. A simple software update will unlock access to Tesla's extensive network.
Most owners can easily manage their charging costs using the seamless Mercedes Me Charge feature. However, this service won't apply to the 2022-2023 EQB and 2025 G580e models.
Starting in 2025, new Mercedes-Benz EVs in North America will come equipped with an NACS port directly from the factory, further simplifying the charging process.
In summary, Mercedes-Benz is making significant strides in EV accessibility by tapping into Tesla's Supercharger network and planning to incorporate the NACS port by 2025, ensuring greater convenience for its customers.
