Can I get the option to replace the charging port on my upcoming R1S with the Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS) port?

They did have to plan in advance.
Chris has always been a huge fan of Tesla. I expected Aptera to jump through all of the necessary hoops to ship a vehicle that is compatible with the supercharging network even before Tesla announced NACS. Aptera still isn't shipping their first vehicles with compatibility, which IMO must mean that Tesla's old requirements for inclusion in the network were so incredibly onerous to be absolutely useless. Even beyond the patent argument that was known.

I've had better luck charging at the Tesla Superchargers that have EA stations right next to them.

My dream becomes a reality! Now I can't wait for my R1S to arrive. I may not get the NACS port in my Rivian but at least, I will be able to charge at the Tesla superchargers with the adapter next year. I am hoping I can get my R1S by the end of the year (Preorder 11/22)
