    Hyundai Enhancing EV Owners Charging Convenience with FREE NACS DC EV Adapters

      How do you encourage current and new customers to buy your EV products, give them the confidence to charge at over 20,000 plus Tesla Supercharger Stations in North America.

    Hyundai has given their current customers of Hyundai EVs and potential customers of 2024 EVs that have the CCS charging port the Christmas gift of a free NACS to CCS adapter starting in Q1 2025.

    Specifically, Hyundai has stated in their press release that Current Hyundai EV owners and new EV Owners that purchase or lease a current CCS Charging port EV are eligible to request the NACS to CCS adapter, shipping is included through the MyHyundai owner portal. This Hyundai-authorized adapter will give CCS-port-equipped Hyundai EV drivers access to more than 20,000 Tesla Superchargers in the United States. Free adapters will be available to eligible owners of the following models:

    Model-year 2024 and earlier:

    Specific 2025 Models only:

    Details, instructions, and terms and conditions related to the process for owners to claim their complimentary adapter along with pricing for adapter units will be released in 2025 via HyundaiNews.com and additional customer-facing communication channels.

    The Genesis luxury brand is also participating in the program, with details to be revealed early next year.

    The 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 XRT and Limited will be the first to be built and sold in the U.S. with the NACS port.

    Per Olabisi Boyle, sernior VP, product planning and mobility strategy: “To accelerate EV adoption, we started by listening to our current owners, the desire for an expanded easy charging network. These adapters will make DC fast-charging more convenient for current owners. Plus, the NACS port on new models like the upcoming IONIQ 9 along with improvements to our digital charging ecosystem, will further enhance the customer experience for future EV drivers. Our goal is to make the transition to electric seamless.”

    For at least the next 5-7 years, nearly all EVs will need to come with an adaptor of some sort from the manufacturer as the charging network converts. If not NACS to CCS, then CCS to NACS.

    • That’s a really good value especially if you can get the tax credit applied via lease if it sticks around.     The only downside is it is 5,900 lb vehicle so it isn’t really a performance car outside of straight line speed.     Cadillac needs to make an EV sedan/coupe version of this, because the Lyric is a bit big and heavy and the CT4/CT5 don’t really sell anyway.  
    • I'm coming back to this thread and post above after having written it a year ago.  I didn't see a thread on the new Camry. I parked next to one of these units today.  Everything above pretty much stands.  The way I noticed it is that it said Toyota and that the rear sail panel looked "acceptable" ... it didn't shout old Caprice or Impala coupe. The front lamps are nicer but what's below them is not. The stupid diagonal in the console is gone!  Everything looks more normal in the front of the cabin, even though there are a lot of horizontal slats everywhere. Looking back, I really liked that Honda Accord hybrid I was assigned as a rental unit at a South Florida airport and which I reviewed.  If Honda did a good job with it, I'm sure Toyota will, too.
    • Wow, forget the Kia Boys, seems Subaru web flaws is much worse. https://www.wired.com/story/subaru-location-tracking-vulnerabilities/
    • I can't imagine there is much of a market in the US for a $100k KN EV van...I know there is the whole 'van life' thing, but that is a small group of 'lifestyle influencer' wankers on TikTok/YouTube, etc.  At least the VW ID Buzz has the brand history and heritage going for it.
    • I’ll find Jimmy Hoffa before you find a successful “lifestyle” van market in this country and I am a van fan from way back. However, like station wagons, that is beyond a tough sell in this country. At least VW had the good sense to give theirs hope by giving it some style. All the great tech in the world doesn’t change that fact for the Kia. Again, that thing is hideous regardless of the lifestyle choice lol.
