Funny how many people are now questioning why Tesla created their own proprietary charging connector and that it's not fair for other EVs. How about no support for

when he was advancing the technology. His team created a reliable way to charge the fleet? Deal with it!

We created our own connector, as there was no standard back then & Tesla was only maker of long range electric cars. It’s one fairly slim connector for both low & high power charging. That said, we’re making our Supercharger network open to other EVs later this year.

Will it be open to other EV in all countries or just specific ones?

The fun thing here is that competitor's customers will help fund future superchargers.. will certainly be a challenge to meet supply and demand.

And those companies will have to pay pro rata to maintain and build more Superchargers? If not then lots of waiting for drivers and costs for Tesla to bear.
