Ford and General Motors have in recent weeks struck deals with Tesla to use its charging technology, now dubbed the North American Charging Standard.
SEOUL — Hyundai Motor Co. will consider making its vehicles more readily compatible with the charging standard Tesla Inc. is pushing for in North America, the South Korean automaker's CEO said on Tuesday.
Jaehoon Chang, who is also Hyundai's president, said the company would consider joining the alliance of automakers shifting to Tesla's standard, but that it would have to determine that was in the interest of its customers. "That's what we will look into from the customer's perspective," Chang told analysts at the automaker's investor day.
Chang said Hyundai would consult with Tesla to see whether it could make adjustments to its charging system for Hyundai customers so they could charge faster.
