[Poll] Should Porsche join the NACS network?

[daveo4EV]

Thanks for the detailed response. My reservation is with being forced to migrate to lower performance Tesla Superchargers as the CCS network withers away from lack of investment. I didn't buy a Taycan to charge at a maximum rate of 150 KW...half that if someone else is plugged into the same dispenser.

If it truly ends up just being a plug issue, and the connector will actually handle higher current, then it may not be as big an issue...though we may find ourselves stuck with using adapters over the long run.

math says due to taper curve real time difference between ideal 270kw and ideal 150kw is 7 minutes - but i get your point and we need to be vigilant.

These posts about "lower performance" Tesla superchargers are humorous. The currently reach 254kw with V3 superchargers and much higher with V4 which just started rolling out. Performance shouldn't be a concern. Long lines should be the only concern....

Yes, but the Taycan cant do that high charge rate with 400V.
But maybe future Taycan models can? Would need to handle more amps at 400V.

I believe V4 is going to be 800v for the Cyber truck.
