Polestar will join Volvo in switching to Tesla's EV charging standard
roadster are coming later. In other words, some models will have as little as one year of CCS-native charging before moving to Tesla's port while others will ship with NACS from the outset. You may have to decide if it's worth dealing with an adapter just to get an EV as soon as it's available.
The reasoning behind the switch is the same as for Volvo: using NACS gives Polestar drivers access to Tesla's much larger Supercharger network in North America, with over 12,000 charge points available so far. This could"greatly increase" EV uptake in the area, Polestar chief Thomas Ingenlath argues. You could buy a Polestar 3 knowing you'd have enough charging stations to complete a long-distance trip.
