      How do you encourage current and new customers to buy your EV products, give them the confidence to charge at over 20,000 plus Tesla Supercharger Stations in North America.

    Hyundai has given their current customers of Hyundai EVs and potential customers of 2024 EVs that have the CCS charging port the Christmas gift of a free NACS to CCS adapter starting in Q1 2025.

    Specifically, Hyundai has stated in their press release that Current Hyundai EV owners and new EV Owners that purchase or lease a current CCS Charging port EV are eligible to request the NACS to CCS adapter, shipping is included through the MyHyundai owner portal. This Hyundai-authorized adapter will give CCS-port-equipped Hyundai EV drivers access to more than 20,000 Tesla Superchargers in the United States. Free adapters will be available to eligible owners of the following models:

    Model-year 2024 and earlier:

    Specific 2025 Models only:

    Details, instructions, and terms and conditions related to the process for owners to claim their complimentary adapter along with pricing for adapter units will be released in 2025 via HyundaiNews.com and additional customer-facing communication channels.

    The Genesis luxury brand is also participating in the program, with details to be revealed early next year.

    The 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 XRT and Limited will be the first to be built and sold in the U.S. with the NACS port.

    Per Olabisi Boyle, sernior VP, product planning and mobility strategy: “To accelerate EV adoption, we started by listening to our current owners, the desire for an expanded easy charging network. These adapters will make DC fast-charging more convenient for current owners. Plus, the NACS port on new models like the upcoming IONIQ 9 along with improvements to our digital charging ecosystem, will further enhance the customer experience for future EV drivers. Our goal is to make the transition to electric seamless.”

    For at least the next 5-7 years, nearly all EVs will need to come with an adaptor of some sort from the manufacturer as the charging network converts. If not NACS to CCS, then CCS to NACS.

      So do I. From 1 to 5 cups a day. I drink coffee a lot less often. Teas is good and good for you, with white tea over green tea over black tea if rank ordered.  Even black tea has benefits.  Earl Grey is my favorite type, and the bergamot in it makes it among the healthier black teas.

      Actually they are not as heavy as you would think and the Class 8 industry is already moving to electric trailers as the weight of the trailer does not get that much heavier but seriously reduces fuel consumption in traditional diesel trucks and reduces emissions. Fuel consumption in traditional Diesel trucks reduces by 36.3% https://newatlas.com/automotive/range-energy-electrified-trailer/ For consumers we already have options in this market: eStream Concept Travel Trailer | Airstream Electrifying Adventure 7 All Electric Trailers Hitting the Market | RV Obsession I think in time especially using in-wheel hub motors, I can see pretty much all trailers having motors and either using the power from the towing auto battery pack or having a small pack that helps to drive the trailer motors.

      We'll I would say Tesla is falling farther and farther behind in technology for the EV industry. The Disappointing Truth About Tesla's 4680 Battery Cell.. | Watch This is a surprise that Honda has released an actual production solid-state battery plant. What Honda’s Solid-State Battery Breakthrough Tells About The Future Of EV Tech The fact that Honda like Hyundai has actual Prototype production assembly lines up and running ahead of Toyota, Mercedes, BMW, VW, etc. would tend to indicate they could deliver solid-state battery tech sooner to EVs than others.

      That sounds like such an expensive trailer configuration, a trailer with massive batteries and motor(s).. That is no better than an HD with their diesel setups now. While the idea seems good, the price of something like that just sounds like looking for a problem to solve instead of the current setup.  At this point, we'd be talking about a 10,000lb truck and an empty trailer weighing 7,000lbs. That's pushing the better part of 20,000lb before even adding anything to the trailer. A basic single car trailer is already close to 2500lb.
