"Overall, this year's developments reflect deep dissatisfaction among automakers other than Tesla with the state of US fast charging-accompanied by fear that Tesla's ultra-reliable and deeply integrated Supercharger network has given it a permanent competitive advantage." "It's hard to overstate the disgust and anger at Electrify America among virtually every person we interviewed. The network has come to be viewed, fairly or not, as the most minimal effort VW Group could have exerted to comply with the 10-year, $2-billion settlement it jointly negotiated with the EPA and the California Air Resources Board (CARB)" Coming soon: Part 2: No, NACS is not today's Tesla connector Part 3: Why Tesla's NACS is unlikely to kill CCS Part 4: Behind the scenes of seven automakers answer to Tesla's Superchargers Best regards, Rush Dougherty TucsonEV www.TucsonEV.com <http://www.tucsonev.com/> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
