"Tesla's Supercharger Network Opens to Ford and Chevy: The Business Behind the Adapter"
TL;DR
Ford's new Fast Charging Adapter, which allows Ford's electric vehicles to use the Tesla Supercharger network, does not currently work with other EVs like Rivian or Chevrolet Bolt due to software restrictions. While third-party adapters also failed to work, the situation is expected to change rapidly as more automakers gain access to the Tesla network, with nearly every new EV in the U.S. and Canada projected to have native access to Tesla charging after 2025.
