Charging port front or rear ?

[Cecil Stone]

I see VinFast has a charging port on the front of the car. While some of the original electric cars have a gate right behind like a fuel car.

I wonder if designing the front or rear connector can solve the problems related to wire length and standardization for charging?

Because choosing the front or rear center seems to make a lot of sense.

I think they will change location in 2025. I say this because I am will to bet they will adopt the NACS (Tesla) port for their vehicles and they will need to be in the driver back of car or passenger front. Or will be a dual port charge port as 1 port on each side of car. Also 2025 is when they start building vehicles in USA

Place the charge port in the left rear and start adopting Tesla NACS.

As long as the charging operators have not come any closer to a agreement about charging ports standardization yet, it is hard to change to any other direction. Even like Apple, it took them so long to change their charging port to USB Type-C lol.

Sorry to say but the SAE has already stated they are making the NACS the new standard in North America. So it is already documented and in the works so Vinfast will jump on this bandwagon as well plus allows access to much more reliable charging stations.
