See veteran charging expert Tom Moloughney test Ford's new adapter on his F-150 Lightning at a Tesla Supercharger station. Spoiler alert: it worked great.

It's not just that Tesla has more electric vehicle fast-chargers than anyone else. They just work better, too. But starting with Ford's EVs, a lot more cars are about to be using those stations as they open up access via new charging adapters. Will the Tesla Supercharging experience be just as good when it has to power so many new and different cars? If a test of Ford's new Fast Charging Adapter is any indication, the answer is: so far, so good.

So how did the adapter perform? Tom pulled up to the Tesla station with a 27% state of charge on his Lightning. During that time, the Supercharger delivered as much as 173 kW of power with an 'initial boost' that came very quickly. It eventually tapered off to a rate of about 140 kW, which is typical, but it still bumped Tom's truck to 47% SOC after just 10 minutes. Reliable, fast, seamless—just like you'd expect at a Tesla Supercharger.
