Reply to comment by catzszszsss in Tesla Agrees To Open Thousands Of Its Chargers To Other EVs By 2024 by 10MinsForUsername
Not really. More than 80% of EVs on the road are Teslas already, so opening the chargers up to a small minority of other cars isn't going to affect usage very much.
That isn't going to change any time soon either, Tesla will likely sell as many EVs in the US this year as everyone else combined, so new Tesla buyers are going to be putting more pressure on the network than non-Teslas will.
On the flip side, this gives Tesla funding to accelerate their charging network roll out even faster than it is now.
>But once we start having every day people using their chargers, teens hanging out charging. Farmer Bob with pigs in the back of the truck etc.
Tesla owners are every day people. There's nothing more mainstream than a 5 seat CUV and the Model Y was the 4th best selling vehicle in the world last year.
