Access the Supercharger network per recharge your electric car even if you don’t have a Tesla? Thanks to a bug it has been possible for some time. To what we learn, sui Supercharger V3 in Europa there was a software problem that allowed everyone to be able to recharge through the CCS Combo 2 connector. Indeed, non-Tesla battery vehicles they could feed themselves for free.
Some tests have been done with several non-Tesla cars like the Porsche Taycan, the Volkswagen ID.3, the Kia e-Niro (Here our consumption test), the Opel Ampera-e, the Hyundai Kona Electric (Here our test) and others. In all cases it was possible to reload without any problem. What emerged immediately led to the hypothesis that the American company was, in fact, working on some project to make its Superchargers accessible to cars of other brands. Indeed, in the past Elon Musk had said he was open to the idea of sharing Superchargers with other car manufacturers, but only after a cost-sharing agreement.

The whole thing then emerged a few days after the meeting between Elon Musk and the CEO of the Volkswagen Group, although it was clearly stated that this was only a courtesy visit. But as mentioned at the beginning, the operation with the other cars was only possible due to a bug so much that Tesla has already made it known that it has taken steps to fix it quickly. At this point, the charging points are once again accessible only to American cars. After all, the Superchargers they are a valuable resource for American society, especially now that its car fleet is growing rapidly. Difficult to think that Elon Musk could grant its use risking an invasion by other electric cars, which would have made it difficult to recharge his models.
