The US government has cajoled the EV industry to use one standard, and Tesla sells adapters, including an upcoming one for fast DC charging, and is opening their supercharging network for competing EV manufacturers to use.

So they’re already working on it.

It's the same ballgame. The government needs to step in and regulate.
