Honda and its luxury Acura brand will adopt the Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS) charging connector in North America.
The Japanese company noted that a lot depends on General Motors, as the first two all-electric Honda and Acura models are based on GM's Ultium platform and will be produced at GM's plants.
GM also signed up for the CCS1-to-NACS switch, starting in 2025, so there is a big chance that Honda/Acura will be ready for NACS in 2025 or 2026. However, initially, the first BEVs - like the Honda Prologue andShinji Aoyama, Executive Vice President of Honda Motor Co., said during Friday's interview:Honda is also working on its own platform for future all-electric models, which will follow the first two Ultium-based BEVs.
"The software needs to be really reliable and really open infrastructure so it communicates with every OEM's software. The hardware needs to be capable of the highest levels of charging. It needs to be secure, it needs to be reliable, it needs to be accessible." Jay Joseph also mentioned the very good maintenance of the Tesla Supercharging network, as something important for the new network:
"If you look at what's so great about the Tesla Supercharger network, it's the maintenance. They stay on top of it, they've got someone onsite monitoring the equipment, they're monitoring it electronically and remotely, and they fix it – fast. That's probably the most important thing."
