  1. 🔌 The NACS transition is the biggest shift in the US EV market since the Model 3 launched. Nearly every automaker has signed on, but the rollout is staggered and messy.

    I did deep research on the best EVs with Tesla Supercharger access across price tiers. Here's what actually matters:

    Under $35K: Chevrolet Equinox EV LT ($34,995) - 319 miles, best value, but needs a $225 adapter (native NACS coming 2027)

    $35-50K: Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL RWD ($42,395) - Native NACS, 800V architecture, IIHS Top Safety Pick+, #1 composite score across 47 vehicles

    $50-75K: Kia EV9 ($56,545) - Only non-luxury 3-row EV, native NACS, TSP+, best warranty in the business

    Over $75K: Lucid Air Grand Touring ($114,900) - 512 miles EPA, 504 real-world, best range accuracy in the industry

    The critical caveat most buyers miss: Tesla Superchargers output up to 500V. Many modern EVs (Hyundai/Kia, Lucid, Porsche) use 800V architectures. On a 500V Supercharger, charging caps at ~125 kW instead of the 230-350 kW these cars can do on a true 800V charger. Superchargers give you coverage and reliability, not speed.

  3. Not a local specialist, but that does NOT look like #NACS to me.. full vid: Joe Lorio (@[email protected]) nitter.net/CARandDRIVER...

  4. Shifting Gears: Affordable Long-Range Electric Vehicles Gain Traction

    New electric cars offer longer driving range and are easier to charge with NACS plugs, making them cheaper to own than gas cars.

  5. More electric cars can now use Tesla's charging stations, making it easier to drive them long distances. This is a big change for drivers.

  6. Has anyone bough one of these yet? Would you recommend it?

    Have you used it on the Tesla Supercharging network? What car do you own?

  9. ZAP BLAP Don't use adapters for your Tesla crap!

    Looks like the issue was with the charging station not playing nice with the adapter and causing a massive arc-fault.

    Doesn't look like the person was seriously injured, nor the car seriously damaged. But that would have been a bad day nonetheless.

    edit: upon further investigation, it appears the Fort St location was erroneous. It appears to have been the On the Run station at the Chevron on the “Old Hope Princeton Hwy”.

    This is also why there should be *one* standard DC high speed charging car plug. One. Only one. For everyone. (there are currently three)

  13. When began this EV journey I had great hope but the software challenges continue to haunt. As an leaseholder with three recalls in the last 12 months, one of which could have caused the doors to spontaneously open while driving or randomly trap you in the car, I shouldn’t be too disturbed that they didn’t make the committed June 2025 date for charging. electrek.co/2025/09/12/vw-on-t

  14. What’s the status of #L2Charging #NACS | #J3400 adoption?

    Well, theres strong demand but divergent availability of supply. In #MURB #condo projects >80% of people are requesting NACS over #J1772, and for good reason. With almost all OEMs adopting NACS for the 2025 model year it makes perfect sense. For #EV owners with older cars, NACS>J1772 adapters are readily available for about $125.

    The supply uncertainty is enabling some hardware makers to raise prices on the new ports. Perhaps we’ll see discounts on J1772 stock in short order. #YVR

  18. #bppulse opens massive #EV charging hub near #LAX #Airport, it's largest in the #US to date
    This is the first of many “#Gigahubs” in the works and has opened as #bp pulse’s largest #EVcharging station in the US. According to a release from bp pulse, the new EV charging #Gigahub is located two miles from LAX Airport and features 48 DC charging piles. The chargers offer a mix of 150kW and 400kW options as well as #CCS and #NACS plugs.

  20. The J3400 is now the official EV charging port standard in North America. One. Standard.

    This will save huge amount of money, and increase convienience, productivty, for everyone.

    And it won’t be proprietary.

    It only took 30 years to get here.
    (Think GM’s EV1, 1995)

  21. I was disappointed in the #EV manufacturers all falling in line and adopting #NACS as the universal standard for #DCFastCharge because, Musk.

    Even moreso now. 🫤

  23. I finally received my NACS adapter from GM! Now Susan and I can use Tesla superchargers for charging our Chevy Bolt EVs when we're on road trips.

  24. I have a Level 2 charger my #ID4Pro #EV at home. I also have a #ChargePoint #EVGo & an #ElectrifyAmerica account.

    However, I believe in #BeingPreprared. So, I bought a #J1772 to #NACS #Tesla adapter but I'd only use a Tesla #Supercharger (or destination charger) as a last resort (because I have issues with #Musk ) & haven't even downloaded the Tesla charging app yet, so I can't even use a Tesla charger yet but . . .

    Here's an interesting article to those who are interested in #EVs published by #ConsumerReports about their experience charging certain non-Tesla EVs at #Tesla #Superchargers with a J1772 to NACS (Tesla) adapter or with Tesla's #MagicDock . . .

  25. I wonder how V2L works with a NACS connector, since that had been a selling point for Hyundai/Kia vehicles built on the eGMP platform.
