The new Nissan Leaf adopts a dual-port system: a Tesla NACS plug for fast-charging and a J1772 plug for slow and Level 2 charging. Users requiring quick charging at Tesla stations must use their NACS, while J1772 accommodates conventional charging. However, charging compatibility is complicated; NACS does not support slow charging and is designed solely for DC connections, leading to potential confusion for users. The shift in the EV landscape encourages manufacturers like Nissan and Mercedes to offer both charging options to adapt to the evolving market.
The new Nissan Leaf features both Tesla's NACS for fast-charging and a J1772 plug for slow and Level 2 charging, reflecting the transition in EV charging.
As the EV industry changes towards NACS, Nissan and other manufacturers are caught navigating between existing J1772 and CCS plugs and this new standard.
