Plug & Charge relies on the ISO 15118 standard for communication between electric vehicles and the grid using digital certificates. Guessing 453 ED and better, 451 need not apply . . .

This seems a little bit like a solution in search of a problem. I have several tap cards, but literally every charger I’ve ever seen is ChargePoint or a car-brand affiliated. I can’t use Tesla; all the other ones are ChargePoint IME. I applied for the cards based on Google searches before I picked up the car. Knowing what I know now, I’d only bother with CP.

Great pro shots of some 453s in the article, though.

Agreed!

This is a real fluff article with NO MEAT AND POTATOES. Once again proves that anyone with a keyword becomes a blog expert with "click bait" titles.

When are they going to roll out their first charging station, how many initially?

This "story" has no traction until M-B grows their EQ line UP to their luxury $edans.

Just M-B and BMW in search of a way to get a piece of the EV pie beyond the $ervice lane.
