It's Chargepoint, so it's useless to Tesla owners until Tesla decides to sell a CCS adapter in the USA.

It really is time for Tesla to switch to CCS in North America.

Tesla switched to CCS in Europe two years ago. The European Teslas are better cars purely because they have a plug you can use with more fast chargers with no need for an adapter.

Other than the aesthetics of the charger, I couldn't agree more. The CCS connector is a big ugly thing compared with the svelte Tesla connector, but you never see it unless you're charging.

Or at the very very least actually release a CCS adapter. People have been begging for a NA version of what they already have available. I wonder what the real holdup is.

can you use an EU adapter with an NA car? can you buy one off of eBay and import?
