Today, Ford F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E retail customers are the first of any non-Tesla automaker to gain access to Tesla Superchargers across the U.S. and Canada. 

Starting today, Ford EV customers will have access to more than 15,000 Tesla Superchargers across the U.S. and Canada, more than doubling fast charging options on the BlueOval Charge Network. This move will improve the public charging experience by giving our customers even more choice and is a vital part of our growth as an EV brand.

Removing Barriers

According to a Cox Automotive Consumer Sentiment Study, lack of charging stations is the second largest barrier after price when it comes to purchasing an electric vehicle. As EV prices come down, improving access to reliable fast charging is critical to help more customers confidently choose an EV.

The 15,000+ available Tesla Superchargers more than double customer access to reliable DC fast charging on the BlueOval™ Charge Network.

Thank You, Customers

Ford is saying thank you to its electric vehicle customers by making the Fast Charging Adapter (NACS) available at no cost to new and existing customers enrolled in the BlueOval™ Charge Network through June 30, 2024. The adapter is required to charge at upgraded Tesla Superchargers.

LOCATING AND ACTIVATING UPGRADED SUPERCHARGERS

Ford customers can use the FordPass App or Charge Assist (soon to be "Public Charge" App in the vehicle touchscreen) to locate all chargers just like before, now including Tesla Superchargers. Integration to routing will come with a future over-the-air update.

 

BLUEOVAL™ CHARGE NETWORK

The BlueOval™ Charge Network, North America’s largest public charging network offered by an automaker, is a “network of networks” that provides Ford EV drivers with easy access to a variety of charging providers without the need for multiple apps and memberships.

 

With the addition of Tesla Superchargers, the BlueOval™ Charge Network now has more than 126,000 chargers, including more than 28,000 fast chargers, with more being added every week.

 

The network provides one seamless stored payment account through the FordPass App, or Charge Assist (soon to be "Public Charge" App in the vehicle touchscreen), that eliminates the need for onsite credit card use. Once owners have created an account, they can then select, activate, and pay for charging by using the FordPass App's “View Chargers” functionality.

 

Ford customers can enjoy trip planning, routing and charging payment through FordPass Power My Trip on both the FordPass App and via Charge Assist (soon to be "Public Charge" App) on the in-vehicle touchscreen  (Tesla Superchargers route planning coming in the future).
