It appears like Tesla jumped the gun when saying that Nissan drivers now have entry to the Supercharger community in North America.
They must wait a bit.
Yesterday, we reported that Tesla added Nissan to the listing of automakers with EVs able to utilizing the Supercharger community in North America.
Nonetheless, Tesla has since eliminated Nissan from its listing of automakers with entry and switched the Japanese automaker again to the “coming quickly” listing.
Nissan confirmed to Electrek that entry is just not at the moment accessible, however will probably be accessible by the top of the yr.
It appears like a miscommunication on Tesla’s facet. We hear that it must be coming quickly.
Elon Musk fired Tesla’s total charging group – seemingly to make an instance of its then-head of charging, Rebecca Tinucci, who reportedly disagreed with Musk about making additional layoffs following one other layoff wave.
As a substitute of simply firing her, Musk determined to fireplace the whole group after which despatched an e mail to different Tesla managers utilizing the charging group scenario as a warning.
Tesla has since needed to rehire a number of former members of its charging group to rebuild the division.
That is believed to have slowed down the opening of the Supercharger community to different automakers in North America. We have been advised that communications with Tesla’s charging group have been tough to non-existent for these automakers for weeks earlier this yr.
As we’ve beforehand reported, the scenario has undoubtedly slowed down Tesla’s personal deployment of Supercharger stations.
