EV maker Rivian to adopt Tesla's charging standard
  + stars: | 2023-06-20 | by ( Abhirup Roy | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
SAN FRANCISCO, June 20 (Reuters) - Electric vehicle maker Rivian (RIVN.O) said on Tuesday it has agreed to adopt Tesla's (TSLA.O) charging standard, giving Rivian customers access to the biggest U.S. charging network and adding momentum to Tesla's bid to set the industry standard. Rivian also said it will make a Tesla-style charging port standard on its vehicles starting in 2025. While other automakers get access to Tesla's charging network, Tesla stands to profit from selling power to a bigger group of electric vehicle drivers. Tesla's charging standard had been proprietary until November, when it made the design and specifications public and rebranded the technology as the North American Charging Standard (NACS). "It's great to see the industry coming together to adopt the North American Charging Standard," Tesla's senior director of charging infrastructure, Rebecca Tinucci, said in a statement.
