Honda and Acura electric vehicle owners in the United States should find it much easier to go on long road trips starting this summer. That’s because the Honda Prologue and Acura ZDX will gain access to the Tesla Supercharger Network in June.

The two automakers are the latest to join a growing list of non-Tesla car brands that can access a part of the Supercharger network in North America. As a reminder, Tesla’s DC fast charging network is widely regarded as the best in terms of availability and reliability, at least in the U.S. However, not all Superchargers are available to non-Tesla vehicles. In Honda and Acura’s case, we’re talking about more than 20,000 stalls across the country.

It all started with Ford, which was the first to offer Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning owners the ability to recharge at Superchargers. General Motors, Rivian, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Polestar and Volvo followed, and more are waiting in line.

Honda and Acura will offer a manufacturer-approved charging adapter to their customers, which is required by Tesla. Both the Honda Prologue and Acura ZDX come with a CCS1 charging port from the factory, but the vast majority of Superchargers in the U.S. have Tesla’s NACS connector.

The adapters will be available at Honda and Acura dealerships in the U.S. starting in June. Honda Prologue and Acura ZDX owners will be notified via the HondaLink and Acura EV smartphone apps when they can order their adapter. The same apps will integrate all the compatible Tesla Supercharger stations that can be used by non-Tesla vehicles.

The two automakers did not say what company is supplying their approved adapter, but by the looks of it, it seems to be made by Lectron. That’s the same company that supplies the NACS to CCS adapter for Ford. However, it’s worth noting that even though Lectron sells a different version of the NACS to CCS adapter (as do other companies), the terms of use for Tesla Superchargers prohibit units that are not manufacturer-approved.

“Adding Tesla Supercharger network access to the charging networks already available to our EV customers means industry-leading fast-charging access for Honda and Acura EV drivers,” said Ryan Harty, assistant vice president of Sustainability & Business Development at Honda in the U.S. “By the end of this decade, we strive to provide Honda and Acura EV drivers with the most convenient and easy charging at more than 100,000 charge points nationwide, helping people choose to purchase an EV for the many benefits of driving one.”

It's worth noting the 100,000 figure includes Tesla Superchargers as well as DC fast chargers from Ionna, EVgo and Electrify America.

Honda and Acura did not say how much their approved NACS to CCS adapter will cost. The pricing will be confirmed closer to the market introduction in June.
