What a weird article. I thought the interview was good, and the Lucid CEO is making the important point that (especially for Lucid cars) the plug type is secondary, but it's the voltage level that is critical. But then the article author goes on with the non-sequitor that "By
adopting the NACS, carmakers could gain access to Tesla’s expansive Supercharger Network without any adapters. This immediately gives owners of compatible electric cars the capability to travel long distances all over the United States."
But the whole point that the Lucid CEO is making is that the existing supercharger network is only slightly better than useless for long trips for Lucids, because the low voltage means that it is capped out at 50 kW charging.
As for the previous comment about whether we should lock this thread, FWIW I know this must be tiresome to folks that have been following this closely, but for people like me who only pop in every now and then, this thread has been really helpful and informative to me - I didn't even know about the voltage issue until reading through this thread and linked sites. And while the political debates get annoying, there is frequently good new info like this interview with the Lucid CEO.
