Volkswagen EVs to Get Tesla Supercharger Access

  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout vehicle owners, enthusiasts, and curiosity seekers with a place to engage in discussion, suggestions, stories, and connections. Supportive communities are sometimes hard to find, but we're determined to turn this into one.

    Additionally, Scout Motors wants to hear your feedback and speak directly to the rabid community of owners as unique as America. We'll use the Scout Community to deliver news and information on events and launch updates directly to the group. Although the start of production is anticipated in 2026, many new developments and milestones will occur in the interim. We plan to share them with you on this site and look for your feedback and suggestions.

    How will the Scout Community be run? Think of it this way: this place is your favorite local hangout. We want you to enjoy the atmosphere, talk to people who share similar interests, request and receive advice, and generally have an enjoyable time. The Scout Community should be a highlight of your day. We want you to tell stories, share photos, spread your knowledge, and tell us how Scout can deliver great products and experiences. Along the way, Scout Motors will share our journey to production with you.

    Scout is all about respect. We respect our heritage. We respect the land and outdoors. We respect each other. Every person should feel safe, included, and welcomed in the Scout Community. Being kind and courteous to the other forum members is non-negotiable. Friendly debates are welcomed and often produce great outcomes, but we don't want things to get too rowdy. Please take a moment to consider what you post, especially if you think it may insult others. We'll do our best to encourage friendly discourse and to keep the discussions flowing.

    So, welcome to the Scout Community! We encourage you to check back regularly as we plan to engage our members, share teasers, and participate in discussions. The world needs Scouts™. Let's get going.


    We are Scout Motors.

Volkswagen EVs to Get Tesla Supercharger Access​

Volkswagen EV drivers will be able to power up at Tesla Superchargers starting this spring, opening up nearly 18,000 new public charging options for them.

We get access to the network in March, but we won't have official adapters available until early summer around June," Mark Gillies, director of public relations at VW Group of America, told us here at CES.

Volkswagen's launch timeline is not yet public on the Tesla website, which lists Mercedes-Benz as the next brand to get access. Ford, Rivian, General Motors, Volvo, Polestar, and Nissan drivers were the first to get it, in that order. All EV makers will get access by the end of 2025, to the surprise of some Tesla drivers.

Gillies couldn't speak to timelines for Audi, Porsche, and Scout, which fall under the same parent company as VW. The four brands co-announced their deal with Tesla in December 2023, so it's likely all will get access around the same time
