Except 1. The adaptor already comes with the charger, 2. It’s trivial in both cost and space to carry adaptors inside a car (you just leave it in the car?) compared to carrying an extra cable/dongle for your mobile device when traveling and 3. There’s nothing in CCS that’s inherently incompatible with Tesla port, in fact any Tesla adaptor to CCS simply does power pass through.

New site designs need to be pull-through instead of back-in spots. And the government can help by mandating the location of charge-ports instead of Auto manufacturers putting them where ever they want. Gas (Ice) vehicles have the gas port on the rear left or right not anywhere they want like EV’s.

Marques, the map in your app defaulted to Africa because that is at zero degrees latitude and zero degrees longitude. The place in focus is called Null Island. It is a common place to go if the app does not have your current location, history of location that you previously used it at or the app is not completely implemented to handle location correctly. I think the latter might be the case here. :)

We definitely need a consortium like they did for the USB-C. Get all the major car makers to agree on a charging port standard. I vote for a center plug on all cars- front or rear. That way you put the responsibility on the charging station to provide a length of cable to reach that location on the parking spot and all cars can use. If yours is in the back center, you back in. If yours is in the front center, you drive forward into the spot. It also gives the car manufacturers some flexibility to place the charging port in front or rear of the vehicle according to their design needs.

Clearly the future demands that *all* chargers need cables this long -- not to mention a single universal charging port standard.

As Out of spec channels of Kyle Connor who often travel to Norway has shown that country has a very high density of chargers as at home as public level II as direct current chargers along roads (low speed, medium speed, high speed in kW) on the streets in the cities, in the parking spots in lots of organizations, at ALL parking spots in airports, at the gas stations and so on. Norway easily can get by without even having any Tesla superchargers since all Tesla’s are CCS there. That is why it made sense to open all Tesla superchargers to public since those DC chargers are not perceived as bespoken for Tesla like in the USA but rather another part of public infrastructure although private but meant to provide excessive redundancy in charging so nobody can even think if having an EV on the road how, when will be able to recharge to continue the journey. It has become driving an EV there like driving a gasoline car in the USA - hop in and go where you need to go. The same KZreadr shows places where gasoline/petrol stations in Norway have left only one pump working with the rest of spots refurbished with DC chargers for EVs. That is why charging an EV in Norway is like charging a cell phone in the USA - just plug, charge, use it. And by the way towing with EVs is not an issue since most are pull through charging stations especially Tesla ones. The only problem in Norway is for travelers with EVs from outside the country to create an inside Norway account with a local phone to unlock the public chargers.

We've had this in Norway for a little while on all superchargers installed after the Model 3 started shipping. As with EU regulations (I think) the model 3 used a standard charging port and not the Tesla exclusive. So all superchargers installed after that, are fitted with 2 cables instead of an adapter. So it was done purely via software to enable all vehicles to charge at their chargers. Not sure if all are unlocked yet, but many are :)

This thing can be solved either by making the cable longer, or by standardizing where the plug is on the vehicle across the industry.

Just a thing to keep in mind for folks new to EVs. This cable adapter only works with vehicles that support DCFC. The connector is for CCS (Combined Charging Systems); the circle with 3 holes and oval on bottom with 2. Older vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt, for example, only support AC charging or just the top circle (J1172). The Tesla converter won't fit with these. Most newer EVs will support DC fast charging, so you can take advantage of the Tesla chargers if you'd like.

I only charge my Audi E-tron at Tesla stations in Norway after they opened up. The cable is long enough if you park your car sideways across a couple or three stalls. Typically no problem in Norway where capacity is more than great enough so that no one is bothered. Some stations do have longer cables or the charging station is placed midway in the stall.

Shoutout to Tom from @stateofcharge and @insideevs. Tesla needs to Limit CCS vehicles based on their charge port. They will also need a queuing system. New site designs need to be pull-through instead of back-in spots. And the government can help by mandating the location of charge-ports instead of Auto manufacturers putting them where ever they want. Gas (Ice) vehicles have the gas port on the rear left or right not anywhere they want like EV’s.
Marques, the map in your app defaulted to Africa because that is at zero degrees latitude and zero degrees longitude. The place in focus is called Null Island. It is a common place to go if the app does not have your current location, history of location that you previously used it at or the app is not completely implemented to handle location correctly. I think the latter might be the case here. :)

Nice video and helpful feedback for owners and the industry. Seems like any easy fix (a number of solutions seem possible) to a problem that will become more common as more EVs hit the road.
We definitely need a consortium like they did for the USB-C. Get all the major car makers to agree on a charging port standard. I vote for a center plug on all cars- front or rear. That way you put the responsibility on the charging station to provide a length of cable to reach that location on the parking spot and all cars can use. If yours is in the back center, you back in. If yours is in the front center, you drive forward into the spot. It also gives the car manufacturers some flexibility to place the charging port in front or rear of the vehicle according to their design needs.

@@earthling_parth As of recent, I'm with Dave, unfortunately. I've been researching the Bolt EUV, even sat in one (didn't have time to test drive), but given my current situation (no house for home charging, I live in an apartment) and the state of my city's public charging (in a city that's just about top 10 US city by population)... fully electric or even plug-in hybrid just isn't in my near future. I'm also quite curious about the climate impact of fully electric vs. hybrid vs. combustion manufacturing, operation, and lifespan. And very interested in your Bolt EUV purchase, especially if you managed to get a 2023 as Marques got me (and you?) very, very interested in. :) haha

Very good review and raising the issue of short cables and parking spots. Another F150 user had to try 3 stations before his truck would sync with the station.
Tesla mentioned yesterday that their new Superchargers (they are releasing in Europe first) have longer cables to accommodate all the different charge port positions. This will eventually be implemented in the US as well and that should help with the parking and charging etiquette. Great and informative video by the way!

We've had this for half a year in Norway, as Tesla opened up all their chargers for all EVs around september/october last year. It has worked well so far I'd say, but yes the "where do you park" issue has come up. Several stations have improved their layout though, so you can park at a charger "in any direction" so to say. So you don't take up 2 spots at once.

I live in NYC, and the only on-the-street charger I've ever spotted is on E. 67th Street just off York Ave. It's from a company called Flo and its charging cables are *extremely* long -- if I had to guess I'd say they extend 12 feet. (They're so long, in fact, that at the halfway point they're suspended from a metal wire that's attached high atop the charging post.) Clearly the future demands that *all* chargers need cables this long -- not to mention a single universal charging port standard.
We rented a Poleatar 2 and took a detour to try the magic doc at Scotts Valley CA. Charge port is also on the left rear panel so I didnt have to take up two stalls. Worked well in my case.

We were on the way home to the SF Bay Area from LA and stopped by our usual exit in our Highlander along interstate 5. Note that there are many gas stations at this exit. There are something like eight SC sitting behind the Starbucks lot and all were in used. While sitting back there in the shade having a bite, five Teslas showed up needing a charge. As more people own and use their Tesla on road trips, we will be seeing more issues with this, not just other EV sharing a SC.

As Out of spec channels of Kyle Connor who often travel to Norway has shown that country has a very high density of chargers as at home as public level II as direct current chargers along roads (low speed, medium speed, high speed in kW) on the streets in the cities, in the parking spots in lots of organizations, at ALL parking spots in airports, at the gas stations and so on. Norway easily can get by without even having any Tesla superchargers since all Tesla’s are CCS there. That is why it made sense to open all Tesla superchargers to public since those DC chargers are not perceived as bespoken for Tesla like in the USA but rather another part of public infrastructure although private but meant to provide excessive redundancy in charging so nobody can even think if having an EV on the road how, when will be able to recharge to continue the journey. It has become driving an EV there like driving a gasoline car in the USA - hop in and go where you need to go. The same KZreadr shows places where gasoline/petrol stations in Norway have left only one pump working with the rest of spots refurbished with DC chargers for EVs. That is why charging an EV in Norway is like charging a cell phone in the USA - just plug, charge, use it. And by the way towing with EVs is not an issue since most are pull through charging stations especially Tesla ones. The only problem in Norway is for travelers with EVs from outside the country to create an inside Norway account with a local phone to unlock the public chargers. However unlocking Tesla is as easy as it is in the USA.

We've had this in Norway for a little while on all superchargers installed after the Model 3 started shipping. As with EU regulations (I think) the model 3 used a standard charging port and not the Tesla exclusive. So all superchargers installed after that, are fitted with 2 cables instead of an adapter. So it was done purely via software to enable all vehicles to charge at their chargers. Not sure if all are unlocked yet, but many are :)

He is a fool. Is the cable too short for him? Didn't imagine that their car is wrong? Where are the Ford or Lucid charging networks with the long cables?
This thing can be solved either by making the cable longer, or by standardizing where the plug is on the vehicle across the industry. I think we can look to gas stations however and draw wisdom from that. Just make it so that a car can pull up on either side depending on where the manufacturer has installed the fuel port. Zero friction.
Damn - wish I could've seen a wide shot of that Rivian and F150 next to each other. But other than that gr8 video!!! Seems like an adaptor for extra length is an easy fix.
After a few months, the strain on those cables is going to cause some serious issues. They definitely need some extending cables that you can pull out of the charger that click at certain increments.
Just a thing to keep in mind for folks new to EVs. This cable adapter only works with vehicles that support DCFC. The connector is for CCS (Combined Charging Systems); the circle with 3 holes and oval on bottom with 2. Older vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt, for example, only support AC charging or just the top circle (J1172). The Tesla converter won't fit with these. Most newer EVs will support DC fast charging, so you can take advantage of the Tesla chargers if you'd like.
I only charge my Audi E-tron at Tesla stations in Norway after they opened up. The cable is long enough if you park your car sideways across a couple or three stalls. Typically no problem in Norway where capacity is more than great enough so that no one is bothered. Some stations do have longer cables or the charging station is placed midway in the stall.
I saw one of my local superchargers on the map of available ones like this and I think I did notice the adapter. Pretty interesting.

It’s not as simple as that. You are pushing a huge amount of power through these cables. Copper is very expensive and Tesla may or may not want to use longer/thicker cables as that will incur some losses and obviously cost them a lot to retrofit everything.
Longer cables or those choosing NACS can locate charge ports on rear driver side like teslas before mass production.
I was so happy when more ppl came and yall started talking about this! It was really cool and kind of wholesome 😂.
