The fact that we can see Superchargers on the FordPass app is actually pretty interesting even though you can not yet activate Tesla chargers using FordPass, that means that when Tesla gives Ford owners access to the Superchargers, the Superchargers will probably automatically show up on FordPass. So you will know that when Superchargers show up on FordPass it’s time to buy the NACS to CCS adapter. I thought I would have little use for the charger activation capabilities of FordPass when I bought my Lightning but it’s starting to be pretty handy, I just wish I could get discounted charging rates though the app like I can with the EA app.
It will be nice to be able to use plug-n-charge if they activate that in the future. However, adding the magic dock capable superchargers to the Ford nav system means it will recognize it as a charger. Prior to this I had to input the location address, then the truck would try to add additional chargers to my route because it didn’t recognize the Supercharger address and of course it didn’t precondition. That should all be remedied by this. Although I think the pace at which Tesla adds magicdocks may outstrip Ford’s ability to update software.
I don't' truly expect we will see plug and charge from Tesla. Tesla's infrastructure is far better and above Ford's, it truly works almost perfectly. They have no need to be bashed by Ford owners for the crap Ford is bringing to the table, which would cause dissatisfaction. I fully expect Tesla to keep payment within their ecosystem and support that for a more user friendly / flawless experience.
Everybody knows. Spring 2024.
Tesla and Ford are not yet integrated. 42 Tesla SuperChargers show up on FordPass because they have MagicDocks, that is the reason. They are open to ALL CCS vehicles, but you must use the Tesla app.
Totally disagree. It will be fully integrated with Plug and Charge.
Agree.
That includes the OP. If you read his post, he is asking for “new details”. Which no one posted on this thread has. He is not asking about magic docs. He is asking for a more specific date or narrower time frame. Some have suggested last day of spring which may be correct but it is only a guess.
You are correct. No one knows anything better than Spring 2024.
I recently used Tesla’s magic dock on a road trip on I-20 in Louisiana and Mississippi. I had to use the Tesla app but it worked fine.
While I agree that is what Farley said, to be honest at this point, that is a guaranteed delay to me. I have confidence Tesla can do their part by Spring, but not Ford. At this point just have Tesla make the adapter available and let's use their app. Waiting on Ford to get them in warehouses and dealers AND update their app is not something I see them doing by Spring.
