Tesla Motors Inc. said it will modify its vehicles to fit China’s national charging standards, the latest move by the electric-car maker to boost sales in the world’s largest auto market.

Tesla will fully support China’s charging standards when they are released and ensure that its vehicles are compatible, the company said in a statement posted on its Chinese website. Concerns over access to charging will ease with the development of charging infrastructure over the next few years, the company said.
