Hyundai, Kia to adopt Tesla EV-charging standard in U.S., Reuters reports

Hyundai Motor (HYMTF) and Kia Corp (KIMTF) said on Thursday that they had decided to adopt Tesla’ (TSLA) electric vehicle charging technology in the United States, according to Reuters. Joining their global peers, including Ford Motor (F) , General Motors (GM) and Nissan (NSANY) in adopting Tesla’s North American Charging Standard, or NACS, Hyundai’s and Kia’s moves take the Elon Musk-led company’s superchargers closer to becoming the industry standard at the expense of the rival Combined Charging System, or CCS, the report says.
