Damn, ouch. Seems crazy that they're now in the position of breaking supercharger compatibility with existing cars.

    No compatibility break as far as I know. I believe V3 superchargers speak CCS to 2019 and newer cars and fallback to the older Tesla-proprietary communication if necessary.

      Sure, but some Tesla owners are going to be surprised when they pull up to a third party charger with a Tesla plug that doesn't work on their car even though it plugs in.

        Only ~once.

        A little bit of pain when there aren't that many vehicles is fine if it makes things quite a lot better going forward.
