Tesla has introduced a newly redesigned DC fast-charging adapter that converts CCS1 to NACS and now fits the charging port of the Cybertruck. This update aims to enhance compatibility for the electric pickup truck. The release was announced on January 26, 2026.
Tesla announced the launch of its redesigned CCS1-to-NACS DC fast-charging adapter on January 26, 2026. The key improvement is that the adapter now properly fits the unique charging port of the Tesla Cybertruck, addressing previous compatibility issues for owners seeking to use non-Tesla charging networks.
According to the official description, this adapter enables Cybertruck users to access a broader range of DC fast-charging stations equipped with the CCS1 standard, which is common in North America outside of Tesla's proprietary NACS system. The redesign ensures a secure and efficient connection, potentially simplifying charging experiences for Cybertruck drivers on road trips or in areas without Tesla Superchargers.
While specific technical details such as charging speeds or pricing were not detailed in the announcement, the adapter represents Tesla's ongoing efforts to standardize and expand EV charging interoperability. This development follows Tesla's broader push to open its NACS connector to other automakers, fostering a more unified charging ecosystem.
The Cybertruck, Tesla's angular electric pickup, has been gaining traction since its deliveries began in late 2023, and such accessories are crucial for its practicality in diverse charging environments.
