Doesn't Tesla do the equivalent of that with charging stations?

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe. But Tesla doesn't own over 50% of the charging station market share.

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

True... I think even if they don't, it's still potentially anti-competitive.

(Gawd, Imagine how life would be with gas station incompatibility with your car. Holy shit that would suck).

Tesla, you mean the one that literally made and freely distributed the open standard that almost all vehicle chargers are based on? And may have a better understanding of the technology as a result and able to charge faster accordingly? That same Tesla? What a wild notion!!
