If you drive a Nissan Ariya, or you’re thinking about joining the EV crowd, your biggest question is probably: Where do I charge, and how easy is it to keep my vehicle powered up?
At Loughead Nissan in Swarthmore, PA, we’ve got good news. Nissan has just made EV charging simpler, smarter, and more convenient than ever before.
With the release of a Nissan-approved North American Charging Standard (NACS) adapter kit, Ariya drivers can now access more than 20,000 Tesla Superchargers across the country. That’s in addition to public charging stations already available through the NISSAN ENERGY Charge Network. Whether you’re commuting around Swarthmore and Springfield, heading into Philly, or taking a weekend trip through the Delaware Valley, you’ve now got charging options everywhere.
The adapter itself is easy to use. It connects your Ariya’s CCS1 charging system to Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS) fast chargers, no mechanical wizardry required. The adapter kit is priced at $235 and can be ordered through Loughead Nissan or online at NissanUSA.com. And once you’ve got it, the MyNISSAN app helps you find compatible chargers in real-time, right from your phone.
With all this expanded access, Nissan is taking the guesswork out of EV ownership. That means less time worrying about charging and more time actually enjoying the drive. The Ariya is compatible with Tesla’s V3 and V4 Superchargers, and the adapter doesn’t slow anything down, you’ll get the same fast charging performance you expect.
Looking ahead, Nissan has even bigger plans. Starting this year, new Nissan EVs will come equipped with built-in NACS ports, so no adapter will be needed to access Tesla Superchargers. The future of charging in Pennsylvania, and everywhere else, is looking a lot more connected.
As more drivers in Swarthmore and across Delaware County make the switch to electric, access to reliable, convenient charging is becoming more important than ever. Nissan’s move to support the NACS standard is a major step toward unifying the charging experience for EV owners everywhere.
