NACS Adapter Now Available + Ford EV Owners Can Now Charge on Tesla Superchargers in U.S., Canada! 🙌

[potato]

So this is the official adapter for nacs to ccs1 (DCFC) is there an OFFICIAL adapter for nacs to j1772(Tesla destination chargers)?

I don't think Ford makes one. There are tons of third party options though, with TeslaTap being the first to market and probably the most respected brand.

Got an update on the adapter.

All canadians are getting the error clicking on the email order status button. Yeah seems they forgot we exist.

Someone on the FB lighting canada group mentioned if you remove the everything from "emailid" and onwards in the URL it works. It does for me. Not sure if that causes any different or missing infromation to be present though.

I'm getting a shipping estimate of July for order number 9937 even though people here are reporting May/June for order numbers around 10k.

I got mine to go through (in Canada). Took a few tries after the browser being hung up, then it just suddenly worked.

Order Number: FAE:90037778

OUCH! September delivery!

Crunching a small sample of data with very broad delivery windows (30 day variance), these delivery estimates imply that they are only able to produce about 250 adapters a day. Tesla's making them and they're going to be making them for all the other OEMs as well. I would think they are either going to ramp up more than that, or will soon, and we'll see delivery estimates adjust sooner. 250 a day is just too low a number.

I've updated my FordPass app to v4.33.0 and turned on P&C but only the EA tile appear on the P&C page. I've seen other screen shots on this thread showing a Tesla tile as well. Has anyone else had this issue and will this effect P&C's ability to work at a Tesla station?

Mine wasnt there yesterday, it is there today. Nothing changed between last night and today for me. Just be patient is my advice.

Mine took overnight to show up as a tile.

Mine didn't update since yesterday, and I've quit and restarted the app a couple times. Maybe it will update by July when I get my adaptor.

Five of them completely ignore the dude in the Silver Lightning last evening, just sitting in their cars reading e-books or what-ever, granted it was still windy and cold out.

You mean the CELEBRITY in the Silver Lightning. Ignoring me I can understand, but that is odd. Now we know where Taylor and Travis can go to get away from the papparazzi if they need a break.

You hit on it when you mentioned the other OEMs. It would be business folly to allocate your entire production rate to a single OEM. If Tesla did, it would be years before owners of other model CCS EVs got their adapters. You can be certain their production rate is\will be much higher, but they are spreading that production across the dozen or so other OEMs that have joined the NACS adaptation party.

Why spread it out? We are the only ones (Ford) with access for a few months. I believe it will definitely improve. Prediction is most will have them by July. Tesla will figure it out and ramp it up.

Got an update on the adapter.

Yeah, I am in Canada and the link in the original email did not work. Somebody suggested removing everything to the right of emailid to get to this page. That worked, but I also got another email today. So I am thinking my order did not update but they just fixed the link on the Canadian site...

If you guys are in a big hurry to get one, just wait for a ford driver to go into the convenience store, walk up, hit the lock button their charge port, unplug, and take it.

...Tesla's making them and they're going to be making them for all the other OEMs as well.

In multiple videos from that same site in NJ, I saw Ford folks repeatedly, when asked who was making it, say "Designed and Engineered by Tesla", as if the phrase was something mandatorily practiced before the big day. Note that they were not answering the question of "Who is making it?". So as far as I know, we don't yet know who is actually doing the manufacturing.

i took my A2Z adapter to the local super tesla and it worked! failed at first but then came to life after i added my address to the tesla app. charged my credit card for ~$2.50(i did not stay long as i was close to 100% already. i also was charged $20.00 by tesla but then an hour later that $20.00 was refunded by tesla. i have no idea what that was about but it went away and the $2.50 stayed
moral of my story: A2Z works
