    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    More automakers this week announced a switch in the style of charging plugs that will be fitted to their future electric vehicles.

    BMW will start adding native NACS ports to its EVs in 2025, and that same year its customers will gain access to the Tesla Supercharger network.

    Stellantis has yet to make the switch, meaning Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, and Ram are all sticking with CCS1 for now.

    Volkswagen Group has also yet to take the plunge, which means that Audi and Porsche are also staying with CCS1 for now, as well as the soon-to-be-reborn Scout brand.

    But we should note that Electrify America—which is part-owned by VW—said in June that it will add NACS plugs to its DC fast chargers in 2025.

    What’s more, Stellantis is one of seven automakers that have committed to a new joint venture that will roll out a network of 30,000 DC fast chargers starting next year—chargers that will feature NACS as well as CCS1 plugs.
