From Transport Evolved.

It’s a good six weeks now since Ford became the first automaker to announces its intent to switch from CCS to NACS (aka Tesla’s charging inlet) for future North American market EVs.

We’ve since seen many other automakers make similar announcements, along with charging providers and charging station equipment manufacturers.

But what will the transition to NACS mean for you if you’re a new EV owner, an existing EV owner, or someone who may be buying a used EV in the coming months?

We’re going to explain all.
