Hyundai says Tesla's Supercharging network will fully support the ultra-fast charging speeds on its E-GMP vehicles, including the Ioniq 5, Ioniq 6, and Ioniq 7.
There being actual standards process on going and so on. Mind you for benefit of Tesla, they did make good on their promise to make it freely available and have already issued a Patent Assurance Letter to SAE.
The only ones I was aware of that didn’t use CCS were Tesla and Nissan.
Correct. But that also means the majority of cars on the streets were/are using NACS (as Tesla dominates sales). Now almost every notable company has agreed that NACS is the connector to standardize around.
A big thing that hurt CCS is the charging networks are inferior to NACS networks. They just aren’t as reliable. (And that isn’t to say a CCS network couldn’t be reliable, it just is that the copmanies that built them out never cared enough to make them as reliable). Manufacturers with CCS cars saw themselves at a disadvantage due to the poorer quality network their cars were using.
Even more confirmation there is now a standardized US connector!
Yes that is important information. Don’t jump on a Hyundai based on this only as all manufacturers will do the same.
Hyundai is like the 15th company to make this announcement. No idea where you got the idea that people will jump on Hyundai because of this.
Has VW or Mini or Toyota announced NACS yet? Asking out of curiosity, not against your statement.

Toyota needs to actually make electric cars first!
Well the real standard confirmation is here:

Wasn’t pretty much every EV in the US using the CCS connector? The only ones I was aware of that didn’t use CCS were Tesla and Nissan.
