Can you charge CCS at Tesla supercharger?
This pilot is only accessible for CCS-enabled vehicles. If a Supercharger post has two cables, Non-Tesla cars can only charge with the CCS connector.
Can CCS plug into J1772?
CCS (Combined Charging System): The CCS connector uses the J1772 charging inlet, and adds two more pins below. It “combines” the J1772 connector with the high speed charging pins, which is how it got its name.
Is CCS faster than CHAdeMO?
CCS and CHAdeMO chargers differ in the speeds at which they can charge. CCS on Electrify America’s network can charge at speeds up to 350kW, while our CHAdeMO chargers can charge at up to 50kW. Electrify America stations have CCS chargers with varying speeds, ranging from 50kW up to 350kW.
Is CCS same as CHAdeMO?
Where CCS connectors differ from CHAdeMO, is that they allow for AC/DC charging on the same port. CHAdeMO-equipped EVs require an additional J1772 connector cord to achieve Level 1 or 2 charging.
Is CCS the same as J1772?
CCS (Combined Charging System)
The “combined” term in the CCS name designates its capability to incorporate the Level 2 (J1772™ standard) plug and DC fast charging connector into the same larger plug.

Is CCS AC or DC?
Like CHAdeMO, CCS is a direct current (DC) charging connector. But because it doesn’t require a whole other connector like CHAdeMO, it takes up a bit less space on the car. CCS connectors are used on a range of vehicles, including the BMW i3, Kia e-Niro, VW e-Golf, and Jaguar I-Pace.
Can Tesla charge at CHAdeMO?
CHAdeMO stations enable charging at up to 43 kW or 108 km of range per half hour. For Model S without Supercharging enabled, onboard hardware must be activated to use the CHAdeMO adapter. Every new Model S or Model X is already Supercharging enabled.
Can Tesla use CHAdeMO charger?
Can I charge my Tesla on the EVgo network? Yes! EVgo welcomes all Tesla drivers to fast charge at any of our 800+ EVgo stations using your own Tesla CHAdeMO adapter, or the Tesla connectors available at select locations across the US.
Why is CCS better than CHAdeMO?
More and more new EVs are favouring CCS. However, CHAdeMO does have one major technical advantage: it is a bi-directional charger. This means electricity can flow both from the charger into the car, but also the other way from the car into the charger, and then on to the house or grid.
