The Transition to NACS and CCS Charging
Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis are navigating the transition to NACS and CCS charging standards. The 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 lineup features a native NACS port, making it compatible with Tesla Superchargers. However, the Ioniq 5 N model requires an adapter for optimal charging rates.
Similarly, the 2025 Kia EV6 and 2026 Genesis Electrified GV70 will also feature NACS ports for faster charging and increased range.

While the transition may involve using multiple adapters initially, the goal is to streamline charging standards in the future.
