No, Tesla Stations Aren’t Open To All EVs (Yet)

.” The paywalled article cites a social media post by Governor Gavin Newsom, but there’s just one problem: the headline is completely false, at least for now. It should be true later this year, though .

After Ford’s announcement, other companies really didn’t have any choice but to strike their own deals with Tesla. Other charging infrastructure was both geographically limited and often unreliable in 2023 compared to Tesla’s network, so Ford got a huge competitive edge. So, a week later, GM made the announcement. Then, another and another and another. By the end of 2023, almost every automaker had made their own announcement.

The problem? Older Tesla charging stations only communicate with vehicles using a proprietary Tesla protocol. Other EVs might be able to physically use the adapter to plug in at these stations, but when the car and the charger are speaking different languages, no charging is going to happen.
