Tesla<\/a>\u00a0recently launched the CCS Combo 1<\/a> adapter for its proprietary charging inlet in South Korea<\/a> (see test results here<\/a>) and promised that it’s coming soon to North America<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Some for which “soon” is not fast enough are trying to get the adapter from South Korea. Reddit u\/Kanzaki_Mirai succeeded and reports<\/a> that he not only imported the adapter, but already conducted tests with his 2021 Tesla Model 3 SR+ at multiple charging stations.<\/p>\n

The bad news is that the adapter does not work. There are only some error messages and the charging session does not start.<\/p>\n

“This is the official CCS1 adapter shipped from South Korea. Testing on my 2021 model 3 SR+ (not LFP), 2021.36.8 software. Tried EVGO and ElectrifyAmerica stations, not able to start session at all. Rebooted car and no luck, maybe software locked.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/p>\n

tried 1 ChargePoint, 3 more EV institution stations, all appears to be NOT WORKING. I will retry when my car receives next software update.<\/p>\n

I will share some more details on YouTube hopefully this weekend!<\/p>\n

Please share if you happen to know how to get it work! Thanks everyone!”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The consensus is that Tesla has not yet released a proper software update for the cars in the U.S. (in South Korea, the adapter works only with the Model 3 and Model Y).<\/p>\n

Some users note that it was kind of similar with the CHAdeMO adapter for the Tesla Model 3.<\/p>\n

In other words, we have to wait until Tesla will officially launch the product in the U.S. and then maybe both locally sold and imported adapters will work with Model 3\/Model Y at CCS1 fast chargers.<\/p>\n

That would open new possibilities for Tesla drivers who would be able to use CCS1 fast chargers.<\/p>\n

Here is an example unboxing video of the adapter:<\/p>\n
