German automaker BMW (OTC:BMWYY), along with its subsidiaries Mini and Rolls-Royce (OTC:RYCEY), has announced plans to incorporate Tesla Inc.’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) electric vehicle charging standard in its future EVs.
As reported by The Verge, BMW stated that owners of electric vehicles equipped with the Combined Charging System (CCS) outlet will gain access to Tesla’s Supercharger network in early 2025, potentially via an adapter. BMW will also begin manufacturing EVs with Tesla’s charging standard integrated into the vehicle that same year.
BMW’s current EV lineup, which includes the iX, i4, and i7 models, as well as the Mini Cooper electric models and the ultra-luxury Rolls-Royce Spectre, all currently feature the CCS plug for DC fast charging.
With this move, BMW joins a growing list of automotive companies, such as Ford, GM, Rivian, Volvo, Polestar, Nissan, Mercedes-Benz, and others that have adopted Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS). However, major automakers like Volkswagen, Toyota, and Stellantis are yet to jump on the trend.
Tesla’s Supercharger network, consisting of approximately 45,000 Superchargers worldwide, is widely regarded as superior to many third-party EV charging stations. The company claims that its Superchargers are nearly flawless in their reliability, with an average uptime of 99.95 percent last year.
