Tesla Supercharging Network is Discussing Joining Charging Network Ionity

Tesla is reportedly in talks to join Ionity charging network along with other automakers

According to reports coming out of Germany, Tesla has been added to a long list of automakers in talks to join Ionity, the new 'ultra-fast' joint electric car charging network by BMW, Mercedes, Ford and Volkswagen. In Europe, the Ionity network is considered the most ambitious electric vehicle charging infrastructure project since Tesla's Supercharger network.

 From article, (According to reports coming out of Germany, Tesla has been added to a long list of automakers in talks to join Ionity, the new ‘ultra-fast’ joint electric car charging network by BMW, Mercedes, Ford and Volkswagen.

In Europe, the Ionity network is considered the most ambitious electric vehicle charging infrastructure project since Tesla’s Supercharger network.
It features thousands of planned ‘ultra-fast’ chargers with a capacity of 350 kW at 400 stations across Europe.
Volkswagen’s brands, along with other German automakers BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Ford, are behind the project, but Germany’s Süddeutsche Zeitung reports this week that several other automakers have shown interest in participating in the ongoing project, including “Volvo, Fiat Chrysler, PSA / Opel, Jaguar Land Rover, and Tesla.”
Tesla is the only one of those automakers that already has a network of thousands of Superchargers in Europe at close to 400 different stations.
But the Superchargers are only accessible to Tesla vehicles and they are limited to an output of 120 kW.)
