Hello everyone!
I'm Anna - a university student from Helsinki, Finland with an interest in EVs. I'm writing my Bachelor's thesis on how to improve the fast-charging experience for electric vehicle users and therefore would like to gather some thoughts and insights from drivers from Finland...
I'm traveling from Maryland to Massachusetts this Thanksgiving. I will be leaving the Baltimore area around 7 am on Thursday morning and want to arrive in Mass. sometime that afternoon. This is the first time I've ever planned to travel on Thanksgiving, so does anyone have any experience with...
I have a 2019, Limited, 57 K miles and am in the Northeast US. A few weeks ago the car suddenly wouldn't DC fast charge. I tried on 3 different chargers: Blink, EVGO and Flo. The handshake was always successful, so the chargers were recognizing the vehicle, including the plug and charge I have...

Pretty impressive!

Here is a very good video that explains all the different charging levels and connectors. And at 40 seconds in is a part just for @insightman who keeps us straight on modes and in this case what’s a charger and what’s an EVSE. (Hint: You’ve never plugged a charger into your Clarity. Ever.)
