Opening up the NACS standard is nice too. They have a wall at the Deer Creek office full of patents underneath the next "all our patent are belong to you".
NACS standard is the biggest thing. It's got the best infrastructure, so it's good for consumers (lots of places to charge quickly), good for manufacturers (can sell cars with simple charging solutions), and good for Tesla (able to sell electricity at a premium).
They could also.. just have followed CCS in the first place and you people wouldn't have had this problem to begin with.
Yeah but from a consumer perspective the svelte NACS connector is vastly more pleasant to use than the bulky CCS one.
