Video by State Of Charge via YouTube

Ford and Lectron collaborated to develop an adapter that allows Ford’s electric vehicles to use Tesla Superchargers, called a NACS to CCS1 adapter. In this video I interview Ken Williams, Ford’s Director of EV Charging and Energy Services, and the CEO of Lectron, Chris Maiwald to discuss the collaboration.
