Ford's Tesla Charging Deal Signals Shift in Charging Network Dominance.

TL;DR Summary
Ford will give its electric vehicles access to Tesla's supercharger network via an adapter sent to all owners, and later, new Fords will be made with the Tesla connector on them, allowing use without an adapter. This may mean the death of the "standard" CCS connector used by non-Tesla cars. Tesla's connector is generally considered to be superior, and a single small plug does both slow and fast charging up to 250kW, and the new version supports up to a megawatt.
