Will Electric 718 EV Have NACS and/or CCS Connector(s)?

It will have a CCS3 connector which physically looks like the Tesla connector but is owned by the standards organization.

are they actually calling it CCS3? do you have any updated links/references - I know the standards bodies were on board shortly after the Ford/GM announcements - do you have updated articles/comments - this is cool!

I’d prefer if we vote on names.
My vote is for the J-NACCS?.

Please note the emoji is part of the name and not a reflection of my statement.

You pronounce it by making the face at the end.

No, I have no actual updated information, but standards bodies are going to standards body. When they make it their own they'll come up with a new name, and it's going to be boring.

I vote we call it:

"TWR"

Tesla was Right

I don't think Porsche can successfully migrate to NACS until they change the location of the charging port to the Tesla position of left rear corner or possibly the front right corner. I remember struggling to get the relatively long EA cable to the front fender port on my Taycan CT without it rubbing against bumper. I think the short Tesla cables will be an issue if the port location remains just ahead of the front door.

Not a relevant question or poll for a Taycan forum really!

FWIW - CCS2 I'd assume for most if not all markets where US might be an exception.

It is in the 718/983 EV Boxster and Cayman sub…

Can't do that, prior art. (Tom Walkinshaw Racing?)
