FORD TESLA ADAPTERS UPDATE - ALL FREE ADAPTERS SHIPPED & 20,000 SUPERCHARGERS NOW AVAILABLE!

EV Channels Review

Ford has announced the successful shipment of 140,000 complimentary NACS adapters to its EV owners, marking a significant milestone. The video details the transition from the initial Tesla-designed adapter, which faced delays and some design criticisms (e.g., feeling cheap, difficult to detach, hot metal button), to the new Ford-branded adapter developed in partnership with Lectron. This new adapter is highlighted as being more robust, heavier, and featuring subtle design improvements, including a more squared-off look and a more user-friendly release button. Ford has subjected this new adapter to extensive durability testing, including drop tests, water spraying, submersion, and even being run over by an F-150 Lightning, instilling confidence in its longevity. Additionally, the video touches upon the expansion of the BlueOval Charge Network to include 20,000 Superchargers, improved EV routing in Apple Maps and Google Maps, and increased charging reliability across networks. While the new adapter is available for purchase, the primary focus remains on the successful distribution to Ford owners and the enhanced durability and user experience of the Ford-branded Lectron version.
