Comment on Toyota to adopt Tesla charger for North American EV models
Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 1 year agoIt often isn’t until later on that we truly understand what we need out of a standard
Guess we shouldn’t be using the Tesla standard then because it’s what’s been used by them since the release of the model S in 2012… You know, the early days of wide adoption of EV cars?

so the government should’ve mandated a closed protocol that wasn’t a standard?

The government should have sat down with manufacturers, telling them “Better come to the table cuz that’s where we’ll decide what the legal standard will be.” and come up with a solution instead of letting manufacturers do whatever they want until 8 standards came to be.

well, we’ll have to agree to disagree on that. I think it’s easy to say that with hindsight, but you don’t know where standards are needed when things are first getting going

Not as if it was unclear that EV cars were coming though.
