How do people charge their Taycans with the Tesla Superchargers? Assuming you got the adapter but how do you park? The cable is pretty short.

you have to finesse it - there is going to be growing pains - some superchargers have "side" mount cables - that would work better - but yeah…there is going to be issues.

I seriously doubt it is going to be $0.99/month. Probably at least $9.99 /month. The 0.99 is probably a placeholder.

Can you use the tesla tap adapter for superchargers?
I’ve had nothing but good luck with EA, so don’t feel compelled to use tesla, but always nice to have options.

Do NOT try to use the Tesla Tap. It’s not designed for that type of use.

this is all mostly uninteresting in North American until the physical access issue and it's solution is disclosed

is tesla?

a: going to add CCS connector cables to supercharger locations (they've done this in Europe with two cables at some supercharger stalls (use only one at a time)
b: provide/sell a CCS adapter?

the billing is an issue and that is solved via the Tesla app

but there is a physical plug issue that needs to be worked out…

I'll wait until we hear about that.
Funny, I remember you saying this would be done by mid year 2022.

@StackPivot The 0.99 is a subscription that gives you reduced charging fees relative to what you would pay if you charge without the membership, it’s not all you can eat charging for a buck per month.

I have a Tesla adapter I purchased. Haven't used it yet but read lots of happy reviewers.

I think you are correct; not supercharger compatible. Sorry.
