How do you feel about GM and Ford moving the NACS charging standard, is it going to have a ripple effect?

Isn't the Tesla version missing key features that other port styles have?

Nothing too critical to North America. NACS doesn’t support 3 phase (but neither does J-1772).

Tesla superchargers are currently limited to 400V, but that isn’t a limit of NACS or the handles themselves, more a reflection of Tesla not needing more than 400V so far. V4 superchargers are supposed to be able to do 1000V and the NACS spec is for 500 or 1000V.
