Yeah it's going to be a rough year for EV sales because of the switch. I'm definitely not buying one that needs an adapter if I can just wait a year and not need it. Luckily the EV I'm looking to buy (either Hyundai Ioniq 5 or Kia EV6, they're basically the same thing) seems to be on the relatively early side of the switch.
- cogman10 3y agoYup, that's what I generally advise some of my family members that have asked about switching to an EV. On the flip side, there might be some good deals to get as CCS phases out. But it's just not a great time to buy one (Unless you are thinking of buying a tesla).
- vel0city 3y agoI imagine there's still going to be many, many thousands of L2 chargers with J1772 for several years. And there will probably still be CCS chargers out there as well. So, if you're going to want to truly charge anywhere, you'll need some basic adapter probably for many years to come. Tesla people charging at a lot of L2 chargers today use an adapter. I requested the CCS adapter for my car but honestly, I might only use it once or twice a year if even that. I really doubt there will be much actual pain with this migration.
