why would Tesla be involved? NACS is an open standard
- fshbbdssbbgdd 3y agoWill every car that implements a standard be able to use the Tesla Superchargers at full speed? Or would the charger decide if it trusts the car first?
- kalleboo 3y agoTesla wants government subsidies to build superchargers, that's the reason they pushed for NACS to become a standard (the subsidies require the chargers use a standard - right now they're doing the Magic Dock but that's an ugly hack they probably want to avoid). The rules for those subsidies will require they don't play games with who can use them.
- fshbbdssbbgdd 3y agoTesla says they can get NACS to do 1MW. If Tesla can engineer a car that can handle that, would they really be obligated to run that to any crazy hackjob that asks for it? I expect there some to be some minimum standard every car can use, then a shorter list of approved models that can handle more.
