Cool Hoodie.

That 30% markup is probably cause they know you're taking up 2 spots lol

Tesla is adding 1 supercharger stall per hour in the US. That's pretty cool.

This is probably a good business decision in the long run

Mad respect for filming, editing, and releasing a video all on the same day 🫡

I was at the Cleveland auto show today and the Ford manufacturer representatives said on the 2024 lightning, the Tesla Charging port will be on the right side along with the CCS port on the left side. As a Tesla owner the greatest percentage of Tesla chargers are the short, stiff, and thick cord variety!

Jerry's vids are so good, they are informative and genuinely calming to watch, especially the car vids

You have some of the best informational videos. Keep up the great work.

Watched many videos on this and you're the first to mention the higher rate. Thanks

There is the V4 Tesla superchargers: higher wattage output up to 350KW, liquid cooled cables, and the cables are longer. So non-Teslas will not be as much of an issue as those cables are long enough to at least reach mid way down a longer vehicle or the other end on a shorter one.

Thanks for making a to the point video of this lightning. Great point about the free adapter being free just for a few months. I could see a lightning drive over the curb to get to the last charger on the right

I love your content, precise and also factually correct! The price aspect is very accurate.

In europe the tesla-chargers were open for a while now, the price difference is about the same, but non-tesla drivers can get a monthly subscription for $12, and then get tesla-pricing on non-tesla's. I'd guess something like this will be available in the US as well.

excellent review. you covered several aspects the other reviewers missed. One, the length of the cord. (Your Mom could have backed up another 2 feet!) and two the cost. That Tesla charges more for electricity for non-Tesla customers, doesn't concern me. the comparison prices you show are very helpful. Third, your comment about how many non-Tesla's there are on the road vs existing Tesla vehicles is important to note. can't wait to get my adaptor. Thanks!

Great job on the video Zack! Thanks for making it.

Very cool, nice to see the manufacturers working together

In Norway you can pay for a subscription on Tesla chargers to get the same rate as Tesla owners. It’s about 13$ per month.

Jerry's voice is so calming...he is my source of white noise while studying

Wish we could have seen some content of Zack getting his lightning/what he plans to use it for/what he thinks after driving it for a long time. Glad to finally see it in this video though!

Now we've even got dongles for our cars! What will we think of next lol

Tesla have had open chargers in Norway for 2 years. I frequently charge my Renault there.

super happy to see they moved forward with this

thank you so much Jerry, i own a FORD mach E, and this is a big help thank for the info.... PS i love your channel.

As always, great video! Thank you!

I may have missed it but if memory serves correct you can pay Tesla a monthly rate to get the charging rates that Tesla owners get.

Next manufacturers need to establish a standard for charge port location

Thanks for sharing this! Just reserved mine

“Charging a FORD EV at a Tesla supercharger” **Unexpected Collab**

As a Tesla owner, I'm excited to see the charging network open up for more vehicles. All cable lengths will need some work though...

Nice. Never knew you were in Utah until this video. Best regards

That reflexive shake of the charger plug at 5:14 as if it were a conventional gas nozzle... 😏

Here in Glendale Arizona we have a supercharger station that is fully magic dock as well.. as a Tesla owner It’s pretty strange to drive by the supercharger and see ford Mach E’s, Audi etron’s and Rivian’s charging at a Tesla supercharger…

I've been to that charging station in the middle of the day during winter during a road trip. It was busy as hell and cars were confused as to where to line up and wait. Then after waiting, I pulled into a stall with a broken charger that wasn't labeled broken. Guess what, I had to awkwardly ask the people in the new line (that didn't even see me) if I could cut ahead when one opened. So yeah, adding to that now a truck that is taking up two spots that would be even worse lol. honestly they shoud include some sort of cable extension with those adapters at least but I realize that woudl probably up the cost quite a bit more.

Great information Zack. Your Mom has the same Model Y as I have (nice color choice). What I found amazing is you were able to find not one, but many stalls open at the Draper, Utah Supercharger location. Every time I try to charge there, I'm in a waiting line. If a few Ford trucks show up taking up two stalls, and there is a long line of elitist minded Tesla owners, it will likely get a bit dicey and uncomfortable for the Ford owners. 🙂

Thanks for sharing to us

Come to cali where my home cost more than .45 cents a KWh, can’t wait to leave this state 😂

Oh shiiiiit, good sharing the knowledge with us. I love that Tesla's making money off of the charging of other vehicles other than their own, but is still providing Tesla owners a big enough discount to show 'em the extra love. This is perfect if you ask me. +30% is bang on, so as the Superchargers aren't eventually taken over by non-Tesla's in years to come. 😎This was a good watch through and through!

Very helpful information, thanks.

Thanks, very informative

In Sweden is every Tesla Supercharger open for every electric car and no adapter is needed because they are all ccs.

Great review!

Thank you, you are the only creator that has included prices. One caveat, your home charging is likely not $0.06 per KWH, it is likely the cost of the commodity plus you pay per KWH to have it delivered. Don't forget to factor that in when you evaluate your pricing. That being said it is still less than 1/2 price to charge at home.

car takes up two spots, different costs, possible port on there side. great info in only 5 minutes!

That's awsome! Nice to see Ford choosing to adopt the NACS charging port before any other manufacturer and starting the transition to the better charging network and port.

This is pretty great. Can't wait till all manufacturers have access. Tried tricking a Tesla Supercharger into thinking my Kia EV6 is a Ford using the app and the A2Z adapter yesterday, but it didn't work unfortunately.

I did not know, it happend now in america. Here in Germany and EU This is completely normal since long time.

I'd never heard of Not A Wheelchair before... As someone who spends ~30% of my life in one, this could be a game changer! Will have to save up for one for sure. 😁 Also, between finding your company in this video, and the horse one... You get a subscribe. So wholesome!

you're a wizard, Jerry!

Was waiting for that deeper grooves at lv 4

Have been seeing F150s charging at the superchargers In Monticello, MN for months now. Pretty awesome deal for our TSLA stock

In Norway, Ford is putting the charge port on the other side where that blank is now in the US.

Meanwhile in EU Tesla SC's are mostly available to all EV's and it doesn't need gimmics like adapters. CCS works for all, including Tesla. Unfortunately Tesla SC is on the more expensive side to charge, so it's not the first choice. Other chains also have better charging network, at least here.

As a soon to be Tesla owner, I am happy to see charging networks open up. We do need a better charging infrastructure.

car manufacturer's cooperating is something we have not seen before. Very nice to see. Thanks for covering this topic.

We pay 0.241 EURO-cents per kWh at our home. Those 6cts prices are crazy. We pay at least 0.42 euro-cts per kWh at the public charging places that are scattered throughout the neighbourhood. But often prices increase due to the charging subscription you have, so you can pay easily up to 0.76 euro-cts per kWh. And I can't use the solar from my house because I don't have a driveway to park my car on my own personal property (it's normal over here).

That’s the same adapter that Rivian is sending us! Super excited

This is exactly what Ford and every other electric car manufacturer needs. A LARGE and RELIABLE charging network is a must. The one thing that kept me away from a mustang ev or any other non-Tesla vehicle was the issues with Electrify America. Great decision by ford and hopefully this just helps expand the Tesla network further with the added income of Ford EV’s.

It really should be just like gas stations are now. Where everyone can "fill up" everywhere and prices are displayed and pretty much equal for all customers.

Thanks for the video, it's helpful to see non-Tesla's using the Supercharger. The only way to change public perception on EV and all its pros and cons is live action coverage. Reports, statistics are helpful but also easily manipulated to fit a company, political and economic position. Showing people who own EV's in a range of use and recharging is seemingly the only way to normalize the process. I wish everyone well!

Good job, mate!

I've charged my Teslas at the Draper Supercharger many times on my trips to Vegas and Arizona. It's usually pretty full so maybe I should look to other Superchargers from now on

Good for you guys

Great to see this. This should have been the case from day 1.

It is special that in the USA you can only now charge Tesla with other brands. We have been able to charge with other brands at Tesla here in the Netherlands for over 2 years. Almost all cars here have the 3-phase CCS plug, so you don't have to work with an adapter here. My small Peugeot E208 has the plug on the left, so I don't have 2 spaces occupied.

Technology is amazing

Congrats! We have had that in Sweden for years. Good to see the US ”growing up”.

In the UK Tesla had opened up some of their superchargers well over a year ago. Being a Tesla owner I generally don't have issues with this but I will say it can be inconvenient for most EV users when a car takes up two spaces to charge as the charging port is on the opposite side. I've been caught out a few times waiting for 2 cars to stop charging and taking up all 4 spots. Tesla need to make their charging cables longer as this has an impact on all users.

thats a dang good looking truck!

Can’t wait until I can use it with my i4 and id4. Here in Wisconsin, the existing infrastructure is horrible but since I charge at home, it’s not an issue. Can’t wait until gas stations start adding charging stations.

Your home electricity rate is awesome. Here in Maine, the rate depends on how much you use. The more you use (up to a point) the cheaper it is. The state average is about 28 cents per KWH, but can go quite a bit higher if you don't use a lot. So basically, if you try to save money by using less electricity, they just charge you more per KWH.

I just realized you were at the supercharger right by my house lol. Gonna have to subscribe since we're neighbors apparently

It is not necessarily 2 spots taken if there is another Ford or Non-Tesla, it can park next to you and take the charger from your parking spot. In that case only one spot is wasted (first car in a row).

If Ford do fit the charging port on the other side, then you would only take up the single bay - forward planning 🙂

Great video. Thanks for keeping it short. Love the $.30 premium. Well worth it when you show up at an inoperable EA station. 😢

Thanks for the video, Stalls are made for Teslas remember others brands think Elon Bad, so they wanted CCS vs. The NACS. Tesla made that adapter you guys are using. charging port location should be standard, too, because you shouldn't be taking two spots. Also, that 30% cost will help Tesla add more charging stations for both Teslas and non tesla users. Oh and thanks for bringing up the cost from other non tesla networks.

LOVE your insight to products! I still want you to build me a Hummer EV, now that you have figured things out through you pain and process!!!

Just requested mine! Thank you

Love your videos❤

Great video! Based on everything I've seen on charging EV's, I think I'll wait another decade before buying one.

There is a tesla membership for I believe around $12 a month that allows you to charge at the same price as a tesla.

It'll be really good once they get the J3400 ports on all future EVs. The V4 super charging stations have a much longer whip so it'll be much less likely to need to take up 2 spots when charging vehicles even with the ports on the "wrong" side.

Great video!

EA used to be pretty reasonable, but they jacked up their prices recently. You can pay a monthly membership for a 25%ish discount, but that discount isn't always available at certain locations during busy hours and they make it very difficult/impossible to see what the prices are until you are charging.

Here in Norway, and the rest of Europe other car owners can pay a small fee per month, 12 dollars or something, to use the Superchargers with the same rates as Teslas. if you road trip a lot, it might be worth paying for the subscription. No adapters needed here though.. all Tesla chargers are equipped with the same newer CCS standard we have here (differs from the US one).

Tesla developed their network to support Tesla cars and each purchase of a Tesla, part of that cost goes to building the network. The extra 30% is to make up that contribution to the network. The alternative is to purchase the Tesla monthly subscription to get the same rates. I think it's ~ $13, so after a couple of charging sessions, you'd break even at the $0.11 differential.

That adapter looks like it would be tons of fun on a cold rainy or bitterly cold snowy day.

you can pay a membership cost and the price will be the same as Tesla owner pricing. Membership I believe is $13/month, it is good for people who supercharge often.

Meanwhile, I drove my F150 to the local gas station . I got about 400 miles of range in about 3 minutes. It was a great fill up experience. I also didn't need an adapter of any kind.

In Europe alle Tesla chargers are going to CCS, and its open in most countries for other EV's. And the price here are also cheaper than other charging companies.

Thanks to the ccs Teslas here in europe basically everyone can charge at their superchargers with the same plug without any adapters. Also for an monthly fee of 13€ you get the same prices as Tesla user.

The federal government needs to force the pricing to be the same regardless of what brand you have. Especially since a lot of these chargers were paid for with federal funds.

it's 30% more but you are taking 2 spots so pretty good deal :)

Here in Europe Tesla started opening up there Supercharger Network to all EVs about 2 Years ago. But The EU also enforced the CCS2 charter for all vehicles so no adapters needed.

I’ve been charging my MG4 at superchargers here in Australia since it was new.

Really interesting to see how this unfolds. The transition to universal charging could revolutionize the EV industry.

Well Done!

@JerryRigEverything - when you plug in a destination on your Lightning Nav screen, does it identify Tesla chargers now as well as EA and others?

It is very generous of Tesla and Rivian to open their fast charging networks to all EVs owners. Next step is to standardise the traction battery. Mechanical specs & connections, power wiring, data connection, and open battery health reporting. In this way, it is possible to set the dollar value of an EV battery at any moment, and will be possible for any battery to be installed on any EV by anyone. The standardisation of EV batteries will kickstart the used EV market, and will make possible other forms of battery ownership; the owner of the EV can rent, lease or purchase a battery of any size, and used batteries - with their remaining life known with precision - can be priced correctly, or repaired and re-certified by a third party. I hope the standardisation of the charging connector will kickstart the battery standardisation revolution that the EV industry so urgently need. Thank you JRE for this video! Greetings from the UK, Anthony

⚡🚗 Exploring the compatibility between Ford EVs and Tesla Superchargers! It's great to see the ease of charging, making electric vehicle ownership more accessible. 🔌👍

30% markup while the charging infrastructure grows seems fine, I'm more worried when EVs take over am I going to have to search for my branded charger to get the best rate?
