There is no reason for Tesla to make any statements about charging systems for vehicles that are not yet released.I'm aware that other parts of the world use other charging systems. In a lot of three phase countries like Europe and Australia, Tesla is using a modified Type 2 connector for both AC and Supercharging.
I'm still awaiting any sort of evidence that Tesla is even considering changing their charge ports. If it's all but certain they will do that, surely there should be some concrete evidence or statements from Tesla, yes?
Aside from Tesla's CharIN membership, there is no evidence to support it, but I personally believe that that the soon to be released European Model 3 will have a CCS2 inlet that will support existing European Superchargers and CCS Type-2 chargers. When RHD is released for the UK it will have the same inlet, which should make it obvious that Australian Model 3's will be the same. It will take a design refresh for the S & X to be updated to be the same. There is simply no room in the existing charging socket area for a CCS2 inlet.
