As a consequence Europe has a much worse standard and the US has a better one.

Tesla should have opened the spec much earlier (independent from if they actually wanted other car companies to use their super charger). Had Tesla done this they would be in a much better position now.



What was not open? Tesla chargers have had CCS-2 in Europe for nearly six years now.


The Tesla charger standard was not open. The Tesla charger standard is older then CCS-2. My point is Tesla should have made its design a standard, even before CCS-2.

And my point about North America was that now North America has a better standard, even if its later. The NACS Standard is better then the CCS-2 standard.
