OUR FIRST CHARGE AT A TESLA SUPERCHARGER USING THE NEW NACS ADAPTER FROM FORD

EV Channels Review

This video documents the highly anticipated first use of Ford's NACS adapter, enabling Mustang Mach-E owners to charge at Tesla Superchargers. The hosts express significant excitement, unboxing the adapter and detailing its robust build quality and technical specifications, including support for high voltages and amperage with built-in safety features. They successfully demonstrate the charging process, noting the adapter's ease of use, though highlighting the importance of the "Plug and Charge" feature being enabled. Initial charging speeds of 122 kW were observed, which, while not the Mach-E's peak, are deemed acceptable and a significant expansion of charging options. The review clarifies compatibility, stating it works primarily with V3 Superchargers and not V2, Urban, or Destination chargers. The process of ending a charging session is also covered, with a minor learning curve for detaching the adapter. Overall, the video presents the adapter as a valuable, free upgrade for Ford EV owners, significantly increasing charging accessibility, and anticipates future detailed reviews and road trip content.
