Charging your EV just got easier.

With access to NACS and CCS-compatible stations*, you’ll have greater charging freedom—making it easier to power up anytime, anywhere, whether on a long drive or a busy day out.

Plus, Bluelink** subscribers and owners of NACS EVs can use the MyHyundai app to easily find stations, start charging, and monitor sessions—all from your phone.

What is NACS?

The North American Charging Standard (NACS) is an all-in-one charging port that gives customers access to a vast network of DC fast chargers across North America

All major automakers have embraced NACS as the standard for EV charging. It was developed from over 20 billion miles of charging data, making it a reliable, well-tested solution for fast and efficient charging.

As more automakers, including Hyundai, transition to NACS, EV drivers with native NACS port and provided CCS adapter will gain plenty of options on the road, especially during long journeys..

Please note: Actual charging speeds may vary based on factors like battery temperature and charging station usage. Hyundai EVs will charge at between 95kW and125kW at V3 Tesla Superchargers.

How do I charge at a Tesla Supercharger Station?

  1. If you are driving a NACS Hyundai EV use your MyHyundai app, and if you are driving a CCS Hyundai, use the Tesla App to find a nearby station and select your stall number (e.g., 1A, 1B, 1C) located at the base of the charging post.
  2. Plug in your vehicle and select “Start Charging” in the app. If you need to use a NACS adapter, remove the charging cable from the Supercharger post, connect the adapter to the cable, and then plug the cable into your vehicle’s charge port.

When charging is complete, select “Stop Charging” in the app or on the push the button on the Supercharger handle and unplug the connector from your vehicle and return it to the station. If the charging cable is locked, you may need to re-unlock your doors to release it.
