Thanks for the demonstration. We have a C40 but have only DC charged at EA. Our Volvo is not our EV roadtripper but you never know when a fast charge will be necessary. Happy Holidays!
Thanks for watching and commenting. Glad to hear you found my video useful. I will likely be doing a follow up since software updates for supercharger route planning and payment using Volvo cars app. Congrats on your C40. Great daily driving EV.
Thanks for watching and commenting. There’s a physical handshake between the charger and the vehicle. Only authorized EV platforms can complete the handshake to successfully charge.
Just did a test run at a Tesla Supercharger using the A2Z adapter yesterday with my C40. Work flawlessly, and it was fairly snappy compared to other DC chargers I've used as far as the handshake goes. This really opens up our options for road trips.
Just thinking out loud: since I have SC access for my Bolt EUV, I wonder what would happen if I activated a charging session for an authorized non-GM vehicle using the MyChevrolet app. I also have a Nissan Ariya, so I may get to try it out soon.
Thanks for watching commenting and subscribing. Rivian has been the best EV we've ever owned and our support & service experience has been stellar to date.

Thanks for watching commenting and sharing your experience. Supercharger access is an awesome expansion of DCFC options for Volvo & Polestar EV’s
It's night and day compared to the CCS infrastructure out there.

SC access will only work with authorized vehicles.
Those are currently limited to Tesla, Ford, Rivian, GM, Volvo & Polestar.
I have seen 160 kW.

Thanks for sharing!
Are you referring to seeing 160kW @ a Supercharger or as a max rate on your XC40?
@@EV_OG Supercharger or EA. Car can pull a max of ~400 amps when pack is at ~400 V.
Just subscribed to your channel. Great info! I am considering a Ev. Which would you purchase between rivian or Tesla?
