I hope that's a wakeup call to all the other automakers who announced plans to switch from CCS to NAC"S"

Big fucking mistake basing future plans on that company

Why does it matter? The standard is now open and can be used by everyone. It's just like CCS now from a usability pov but with many more chargers

If anything, it was a major coup by Tesla to make their plug the standard when they have the largest existing charging network for that plug. Now they're in a position of letting other networks catch up.

This decision is bafflingly stupid. Is firing people the only way Musk can get hard anymore?

I didn't really follow. Because the way it happened was, Tesla can make money from it's charging stations and other OEMs get a robust charging network.

How robust it'll be by the time other cars get access is now rather questionable with this firing spree

[–] banana_lama@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago

It's a headstart for a robust charging network while other charging station companies build more to catch up
