So, as long as this adapter ships with the car, CCS stays alive as an option. If it doesn't, then effectively Ford is taxing people for wanting to charge anywhere other than Tesla or their own Ford chargers. Doesn't sound like standardization to me.They will work with existing NACS -> CCS adaptors (everything that's already out there for Tesla folks should work).
I'm unaware of any plans for Ford to have a "ford branded" adaptor for that scenario atm, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was in the pipeline alongside a new Ford Pro charger.
Tesla doesn't include this adapter with their cars. Just the Level 2 one. But they have no motivation to do otherwise. I was just curious what Ford and GM plan to do. They are selling this to their customers as an expansion of choice. But it's not if the adapter is a separate $175 purchase.
We'll have to wait and see.
