InsideEVs contributor and charging expert Tom Moloughney put Hansshow’s latest Tesla Supercharger extension cable to the test.
In real-world testing, the 8-foot NACS to CCS1 DC fast-charging extension cable fell short of expectations.
The cable is aimed at non-Tesla EV owners who often need to double park when using V3 Tesla Superchargers
Tens of thousands of Tesla Superchargers are now open to non-Tesla EVs in the United States, which can make life a lot easier for everybody, especially on long road trips. However, Superchargers were designed for Teslas, which have the charge port on the left rear of the car, whereas other EVs might have it somewhere else.
It’s not the end of the world, but some EV owners are forced to double park at Superchargers because Tesla’s third-generation stalls have a pretty short cable designed exclusively for Teslas.
