Charging is literally the only reason why I would ever consider a Tesla over another EV. The non-Tesla networks are often significantly underpowered for fast-charging, or straight up broken. And not all of Tesla’s network is open to non-Tesla EVs and or non-Tesla NACS EVs. If you want full access to the largest, fastest, and most reliable network, you need a Tesla.
But I guess Musk now wants to put that at risk too.
Ford, Rivian, and I think GM all have had deals to use the Tesla network this year.
This is a very common misconception. These vehicles will not have access to the full network. They’ll have access to about a 1/3rd of it.
Telsa’s North American network is over 50k chargers, but these companies are all advertising that they’re going to have access to just over 15k chargers.
Moreover, if you look at Telsa’s network map, they have already defined which charges are all EV, non-Tesla NACS, and Telsa Only. And Telsa only is exactly what it means. No Fords or GMs.
