„… which is rapidly becoming the de facto charging standard in North America and Europe.“
Wait? Europe? I have never heard of anyone in Europe switching to NACS. Europe is all CCS2, even Tesla uses CCS2. Only Model S and X are using a custom Tesla-Solution which is based on the Typ2 AC-Connector. An probably switch to CCS2 in the next generation cars.
So, definitely no NACS in Europe as far as I know.
You have to go out of your way to even find Tesla charging stations in Germany. They are comparatively rare and far in between.
Could be worse.
