ChargeTronix Launches First NACS-Ready Fast Chargers In U.S.

In a head-turning move in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, ChargeTronix has announced the immediate availability of its Direct Current Fast Charging (DCFC) products equipped with North American Charging Standard (NACS) connectors.

In detail, these chargers are the first NACS-ready units available for shipping within the United States (U.S.), potentially accelerating EV adoption ahead of the 2025 model year. According to data from AAA’s Annual EV Consumer Sentiment Survey, as cited by ChargeTronix, more than half of consumers cite these factors as significant obstacles to purchasing an EV. As a result, ChargeTronix’s new chargers aim to alleviate these concerns by increasing the availability of fast charging options.

Xavier Landavazo, CEO of ChargeTronix, expressed the importance of this technology stating, “NACS technology is critical for the future of EV charging and charging standard alignment. This rollout will support a broad spectrum of EVs and drive the future of standardized charging in the USA, creating a win-win situation for manufacturers, Charge Point Operators, and EV drivers.”

Moreover, the NACS-ready chargers are compatible with all Tesla models and upcoming NACS-ready EVs from major automakers including Ford, Mercedes-Benz, and Kia, which are projected to hit the market in 2025. This wide compatibility is anticipated to support the surge in EV adoption as new models become available.

ChargeTronix is offering a range of charger configurations to meet various needs:

• Power options: 30kW, 60kW, 120kW, and 180kW
• Both single and dual-charging options
• Build America, Buy America Act (BABA) compliant models

In addition, the company is providing a field retro-fit option for all Combined Charging System (CCS) chargers, allowing for easy upgrades to the latest NACS technology.

U.S. Charging Landscape
