As GM prepares to switch its EVs to NACS, it has some new adapters

Summary

The first adapter that GM released, which cost $225, allowed CCS1-equipped EVs to connect to a NACS charger. But now, GM will have a range of adapters so that any of its EV customers can charge anywhere, as long as they have the right dongle. For existing GM EVs with CCS1, there is a GM NACS DC adapter, just for fast charging. And for level 2 (AC) charging, there's a GM NACS level 2 adapter. For the NACS-equipped GM EVs (which again are yet to hit the showrooms), there's a GM CCS1 DC adapter that will let those EVs use existing non-Tesla DC charging infrastructure, like Electrify America's 350 kW chargers. There is also a GM J1772 AC adapter, which will let a GM NACS EV slow-charge from the ubiquitous J1772 port. And a pair of adapters will be compatible with GM's Energy Powershift home charger, which lets an EV use its battery to power the house if necessary, also known as vehicle to home or V2H. Although we don't have exact prices for each adapter, GM told Ars the range costs between $67 and $195.
