BMW high power charging working for NACS CCS1 adapter at TSCN

[MrSnrub]

According to my Lectron contact Only U25 has SC access and F56 doesn’t, possibly i3 doesn’t as well. Our cars use a slightly different handshake method. They aren’t sure if the issue will be resolved

Along those lines, the U25 has plug & charge support (billed through Shell Recharge) - but cannot enroll in EVgo's Autocharge+.

Plug & Charge and Autocharge are both different systems.

Well that sucks. Hopefully there will be a Magicdock BMW adapter. Even the 2026 BMW models have to wait until spring...

Yes, and my intent with that comment was to highlight that the difference in compatibility between the U25 and F56 for these two different systems seems to support the "different handshake method" comment from your Lectron contact.

Looks like the our SEs will not be compatible..
From the MINI website…

Classic! Why support older cars.

I suspect this might also be Tesla. They don’t want slower charging cars

Hate that MINI got our hopes up with that letter.

I’m still holding out hope they they’ll maybe provide a software update (would likely have to be done by the dealership) to enable support.
