EVgo Partners With Tesla to Deploy V4 Superchargers Across US Cities
The chargers will use Tesla's Magic Dock technology to serve both CCS and NACS vehicles without adapters.
EVgo, which operates roughly 1,200 fast charging stations across 47 states, has partnered with Tesla to deploy V4 Superchargers at sites in major cities throughout the United States.
What Happened
Under the agreement, EVgo Superchargers will be owned and branded by EVgo but operated and maintained by Tesla. All units will be V4 Superchargers capable of charging speeds up to 500 kW. The stations will feature Tesla's Magic Dock technology, which allows both CCS and NACS vehicles to charge natively without an adapter, along with longer cables designed to accommodate non-Tesla EVs more conveniently. Deployments are planned to begin later this year.
Why It Matters
The partnership gives EVgo access to what is widely considered the gold standard of public charging infrastructure while Tesla gains additional deployment scale for its V4 hardware. For EV owners, the Magic Dock removes a longstanding barrier by eliminating the need for adapters when charging at these stations regardless of their vehicle's port type.
The Bottom Line
EVgo CEO Badar Khan said the deal would bring more fast-charging infrastructure to communities nationwide and help meet growing demand for public charging as EV adoption continues to expand.
