I don't want people to be mislead into thinking Hyundai are going to be easier to charge when considering a new car. Seen a whole lot of these "(insert brand) to use Tesla plugs" while completely omitting it's because it's a new standard.
And I'm not saying Hyundais are bad far from it kust that these articles are red flags for me. They are either shilling or bad journalists.
It’s also (obviously) a problem limited to North America.
Everywhere else Teslas and Superchargers use a CCS2 connector.
In Europe, non-Tesla charging networks together are bigger than the Supercharger network, and Ionity and Fastned have 300kW chargers that are significantly faster for Hyundai/Kia/Genesis than Superchargers.
