    EU says hi with our regulations mandating Tesla to make their chargers inter-operable with other brands.

      Gods, I love the EU.

      It may not be perfect, and has a lot of improvements to make.

      But damn does it actually work for the population instead of the corporations.

      I feel like this is inevitable. We don’t have to try and find the station that has the right nozzle to pump gas in a Ford. Likewise, vehicle charging stations should have standard plugs. It just doesn’t make sense the other way around.

      I thought I read Tesla’s plug was going to maybe the standard, but maybe I’m misremembering.

        The only issue I’ve heard with NACS is that the 800V battery auto makers aren’t convinced it’s as capable as CCS of supporting the higher voltage for that generation of EV battery. Hopefully they work it out soon.
