  Hi everybody. And welcome back to the Elon
• 0:02
  Musk podcast where we dive deep into the pivotal turning point
• 0:06
  in the auto industry's landscape today.
• 0:08
  And in this episode, we explore how Tesla under the Visionary
• 0:11
  leadership of CEO. Elon Musk has ascended to the
• 0:15
  Helm of the automotive World. Forcing industry Titans General
• 0:18
  Motors and Ford to acknowledge Tesla's Supremacy.
• 0:23
  Now, join us as we dissect, how these automakers unprecedented
• 0:26
  decision to adopt Tesla's revolutionary super Charge
• 0:30
  Network and charging connector Marxist, seismic shift, in the
• 0:34
  power dynamics of the Auto industry.
• 0:36
  Will also take a look into the implications of this
• 0:39
  industry-wide transformation will, explore Tesla's,
• 0:42
  supercharger Network, and the North American charging
• 0:45
  standard. The anacs and how it's become
• 0:48
  the gold standard for EVS. Now, we'll other car makers like
• 0:52
  Toyota Kia, Hyundai and Volkswagen follow suit, and join
• 0:56
  the anacs Coalition, or will they resist the shift?
• 1:00
  Stick to the combined charging system, but before we get into
• 1:03
  that, let's hear a word. From our sponsor Tesla's head
• 1:06
  CEO has finally received the industry recognition that it's
• 1:11
  been long pursuing having navigated the landscape of the
• 1:15
  Auto industry for the past. Couple decades, Tesla is etched
• 1:18
  itself indelibly at the heart of the automotive sector position
• 1:23
  acknowledged. By the industry's former
• 1:25
  FrontRunner General Motors and Ford the decision by these
• 1:28
  automaker Giants. To capitulate to Tesla's
• 1:32
  technological dominance Marxist significant shift in the
• 1:35
  industry for years. Ford and GM held the reins of
• 1:38
  the American Automobile Market unyielding in their belief, in
• 1:42
  the supremacy of their conventional automobiles Tesla,
• 1:46
  despite its market value, and trailblazing advancements in
• 1:49
  electric vehicle, technology remained.
• 1:51
  The daring disrupter relegating to the peripheries, but the past
• 1:55
  20 years have witnessed an about-face in this narrative, a
• 1:59
  power shift. Prompted by Relentless
• 2:01
  Innovation and Market recognition.
• 2:04
  Now, the disruptor has now become the yardstick for
• 2:07
  measuring industry standards as Tesla sits at the center of the
• 2:11
  Auto industry of this sweeping shift in the power dynamics of
• 2:15
  this Auto industry came in the form of two Landmark agreements
• 2:19
  starting in 2024 GM. And Ford customers will be privy
• 2:23
  to Tesla Supercharger Network the largest network of charging
• 2:26
  stations in the United States with about 18,000 stations
• 2:31
  dotting around the country. However, customers of these
• 2:34
  Legacy, automakers will have access to only 12,000
• 2:38
  superchargers. It concession, that undoubtedly
• 2:41
  signals Tessa superiority. Now the Tesla Supercharger
• 2:44
  network has become the lifeblood of the electric vehicle.
• 2:48
  Revolution offering an unmatched charging capability that can
• 2:52
  restore 200 miles of range in about 15 minutes and with most
• 2:56
  charging needs being met below the 80%.
• 2:59
  Hold Tesla, Supercharger Network offers a level of convenience
• 3:03
  that his been unheard of in the EV market.
• 3:07
  Now, the significant stride toward Tesla Supremacy was the
• 3:10
  adoption of the Tesla Supercharger charging connector
• 3:13
  by Ford and GM. And while customers will have to
• 3:17
  purchase an adapter causing I thought about $100 the
• 3:20
  integration of Tesla's technology into these Legacy,
• 3:23
  automakers, denotes a significant try out for Tesla in
• 3:26
  its CEO. Now not only does test the
• 3:29
  Sakura fresh stream of Revenue but it's EV.
• 3:32
  Charging plug is also on a trajectory to become the
• 3:35
  industry standard in. This development, comes in the
• 3:38
  face of competing standards in North America Tesla's, North
• 3:41
  American charging standard, the anacs and the combined charging
• 3:46
  system. The CCS the ladder though, more
• 3:48
  prevalent is plagued by the shortfall of slow charging
• 3:52
  capabilities, making it a far, less attractive, option for
• 3:56
  fast-paced lifestyles. Despite the abundance of
• 3:59
  charging stations that are public in the stands about
• 4:03
  approximately 54,000. According to the energy
• 4:05
  Department, the scarcity of fast charging facilities is a
• 4:09
  drawback. The CCs is employed by a total
• 4:12
  of 74 hundred public station superchargers a static dwarfed
• 4:16
  by Tesla sprawling Network. While other automakers lag, in
• 4:19
  their adoption of Tesla's, technology musk is extended an
• 4:23
  invitation to automaker giant. Toyota to Tesla's Coalition,
• 4:29
  this invitation was issued on Twitter.
• 4:32
  Following a user's mention of an article, highlighted the
• 4:35
  shortcoming of Toyotas all-electric, SUVs charging
• 4:38
  capabilities. Now in response to a tweet
• 4:41
  outlining, the excessive charging time of Toyotas B, Z4
• 4:45
  X, EV musk encourage Toyota to join, the anacs Coalition, while
• 4:51
  Toyota is yet to respond, its decision carry significant
• 4:54
  implications for the broader Auto industry as to Toyota plans
• 4:58
  to enhance its electric vehicle portfolio boasting.
• 5:01
  A battery range of 600 miles this move, could catalyze other
• 5:05
  automakers such as Kia Hyundai and stole Aunt has to align
• 5:09
  themselves with Tesla to avoid falling behind in this highly
• 5:13
  competitive race. Volkswagen however remains one
• 5:16
  of the few automakers loyal to the CCS Chargers as the German
• 5:20
  Behemoth, develop its own. Charging network with plans to
• 5:23
  expand its current 400 with plans to expand its current 840
• 5:27
  charge Station 2 twice the number by 2026.
• 5:31
  The adoption of Tesla's. Charging technology seems very
• 5:34
  unlikely in the fast-paced world of electric vehicles.
• 5:38
  A network of shift, charging stations coupled with
• 5:41
  long-lasting, batteries is crucial for any automaker aiming
• 5:45
  to gain the upper hand Tesla with its extensive network and
• 5:49
  Rapid charging capabilities. Continues to assert its
• 5:51
  dominance over the EV Market the decision to open its Network to
• 5:55
  Rivals, reflects, not only a calculator.
• 5:57
  Risk but also a strategic move to solidify its position as the
• 6:02
  industry leader for electric vehicles.
• 6:05
  Now, Elon musk's recent advice to Tesla Echoes that sentiment
• 6:08
  musk's encouragement for Toyota to join the anacs Coalition.
• 6:13
  Signifies the potency of the Tessa LED standard since its
• 6:17
  Inception in 2012. And ECS has grown from a Tesla
• 6:20
  exclusive connector to Universal standard, gaining the
• 6:24
  endorsement of Industry, heavyweights like Ford and GM.
• 6:27
  Part is the anacs Coalition, automakers, get access to test
• 6:31
  the sprawling supercharger Network, a considerable
• 6:35
  advantage in a market or a fast-charging.
• 6:37
  Is the name of the game. The abandonment of the CCS one
• 6:41
  connector in favor of the Tesla designed nacs plug by Ford and
• 6:46
  GM indicates a growing preference for Tesla's
• 6:49
  technology. The Ford F-150 Lightning Mustang
• 6:53
  Mach E&E Transit slated to roll out 2025 will Feature, the anacs
• 6:59
  charging ports, eliminating the need for any sort of adapter in
• 7:02
  a similar vein. GM has also pledged to
