    ¡ Bien explicado, Lorraine ! It's sad, but typical, that different "standards" complicate EV charging worldwide. Hope they get their act together soon. In the meantime, adapters are sorely needed. I hope you've been able to take a few roadtrips while in Spain, and would love to see some videos of those experiences. ¡ Diviértete !

      J1772/CCS 1 IS THE STANDARD in North America, and Mennekes/CCS 2 IS THE STANDARD in Europe.
      Tesla and Nissan are the only ones not using the adopted standard in Europe/NA.
      I do like Tesla’s simpler, more elegant design, and they did release their proprietary system before CCS 1 was finalized in North America. However they should’ve of switched a long time ago after CCS 1 became the standard. But regardless, it’s not impossible to charge a North American Tesla car on a non-Tesla charger. To my knowledge all Teslas come with a J1772 adapter for AC charging (Level 1 and 2), and there are third party companies that sell CCS 1 to Tesla adapter if you need to DC fast-charge (Level 3) at a third party station. The Supercharger network was sufficient enough when I had my Tesla, so I didn’t have to charge elsewhere, but it would’ve been nice to have had non-Tesla DC fast-chargers as an option (without having to pay for an expensive adapter).

      ​@@seth_stewart Tesla now sells a CCS1 adapter on their online store that can be used to charge most newer Tesla vehicles. Older Tesla vehicles that have an older generation charge port controller can be retrofitted (I and many others have done it).

    What aggravates me is Europe gets smaller more affordable EVs and we get the Chevy Bolt and that's it. Manufacturers think Americans only want big gas guzzlers or in this case electricity guzzlers. The Hummer EV is obscene, it's the same monstrosity as the gas Hummer but this time it's electric. EVs are heavy because of batteries but we don't need 6,000 lb monsters that use more juice. I was very excited about the EV revolution but so far it's only been a disappointment.

    • @seth_stewart
      @seth_stewart Рік тому

      If a Hummer EV monstrosity keeps Americans from driving an ICE Hummer or equivalent monstrosity, I’m all for it. Americans like big cars. At least we’re getting people to adopt EVs that normally wouldn’t consider a smaller, more reasonable one. There are plenty of people that would never drive a Tesla, but they’ll consider an F150 Lightning, Silverado EV, Hummer EV…

      The Hummer EV is more like 9,000 lbs. If you want light and efficient, check out the Aptera.

      The problem with the prevalence of big cars is that it intimidates people into buying them even if they'd prefer a smaller car, because in a big car vs little car crash, the little car loses.
