Tesla Supercharger Dominates EV Charging Satisfaction Study: Here's How Much It Scored Versus Rivals
Tesla Inc‘s (NASDAQ:TSLA) Supercharger Network has emerged as a standout performer in customer satisfaction within the electric vehicle charging landscape, according to a study by data analytics and consumer intelligence company J.D. Power.
Key Takeaways: The study’s insights suggest potential shifts for non-Tesla EV owners due to the adoption of Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS) by other automakers.
The study was reported earlier by the EV-focused news portal Teslarati.
The J.D. Power 2023 U.S. Electric Vehicle Experience (EVX) Public Charging Study focused on EV owners’ satisfaction with various DC fast chargers.
Tesla’s Supercharger system notably scored 739 out of 1,000 points, outshining competitors like ChargePoint (NYSE:CHPT), EVgo (NASDAQ:EVGO), and Electrify America, which received scores of 636, 569, and 538 respectively.
Ford Motor Co (NYSE:F) CEO Jim Farley recently recounted his encounter with slower stations during his road trip on an F-150 Lightning, emphasizing the challenges that many EV users face, and reiterating the reason behind his company working with Tesla to ease customer problems.

Is Public Not Too Happy? Interestingly, the study noted declining satisfaction levels with public Level 2 charging solutions, reflecting an overall score of 617 points. It also highlighted a decrease in satisfaction with DC fast chargers compared to the previous year.
Experts believe Tesla’s NACS adoption and Supercharger Network access could positively impact non-Tesla EV owners’ charging satisfaction.
Brent Gruber, Executive Director of the EV practice at J.D. Power, stated, “Tesla’s North American Charging Standard’s broader acceptance may boost fast-charging satisfaction among non-Tesla EV owners now accessing Tesla’s Supercharger stations. However, replicating the high satisfaction levels observed among deeply integrated Tesla owners remains a question.”
