Honda and Acura EVs Now Compatible with Tesla Superchargers originally appeared on Autoblog.
Honda and Acura have joined the growing list of automakers giving their EV drivers access to Tesla’s Supercharger network. Starting now, owners of the Honda Prologue and Acura ZDX can plug into more than23,000 Supercharger stallsacross North America — as long as they’ve got the right hardware. That hardware is aNACS-to-CCS adapter, now available for $225 through both brands’ accessory stores.It’s a key move as Honda looks to gain ground in the increasingly competitive EV space — and it follows similar announcements from rivals.Mercedes-Benz joined Tesla’s Supercharger networkearlier this year, providing over 20,000 extra charging options for its EV customers. Unlike Honda and Acura, new Mercedes models come equipped with the NACS port as standard, while existing owners must buy an adapter separately.

App Support Coming Soon
At launch, Honda and Acura drivers will use theTesla appto locate and pay for Supercharging sessions, butHondaLinkandAcura EVapp integration is on the way. Both brands sayPlug & Chargesupport will also roll out soon, allowing for a frictionless tap-and-go experience.That could prove critical. While at-home charging remains the most convenient option for many, the availability of fast public chargers is still a dealbreaker for prospective EV buyers. This is especially true as concerns grow over access. Back in June,Tesla removed several Superchargers from a key East Coast route, sparking controversy and prompting Elon Musk to cry foul over supposed “corruption.” The decision left drivers scrambling for alternatives along one of the busiest intercity corridors in the country.

Everyone Wants In — But Not Everyone Pays
Other automakers are taking different approaches.Hyundai began offering free Supercharger adapterslate last year to existing EV owners, helping to smooth the transition as the NACS standard becomes the default in North America. Honda, for now, is charging for its adapter — but the price is still relatively modest given the network access it unlocks.All of this underscores the reality of Tesla’s position: like it or not, Elon’s charging network has become the de facto EV standard. It’s fast, it’s widespread, and it’s now open — with caveats — to nearly everyone.For Honda and Acura, this new compatibility is more than a convenience. It’s a necessary step to keep pace in a market where infrastructure often dictates success. And with the Prologue and ZDX still in their early days, it could prove decisive in convincing hesitant buyers to take the plunge.
