Electric vehicle maker Rivian said it will follow General Motors and Ford and join Tesla’s charging network next year.
Bill Borgeson charges his Model S Tesla at a supercharging station on June 3, 2019, in Rolling Meadows, Illinois. Like GM and Ford, Rivian owners will get access to more than 12,000 Tesla Supercharger plugs. In the U.S., Tesla has 1,797 Supercharger stations and more than 19,000 plugs, according to the Department of Energy.
The Energy Department says there are about 54,000 public charging stations nationwide with more than 136,000 plugs. While most are slower Level 2 chargers, the network of DC fast chargers is growing.

It also will offer an adapter for owners of current Rivian EVs. The move is another domino to fall as the auto industry considers switching to Tesla’s connector, which it calls the North American Charging Standard.
