>3 phase is a huge deal, especially for commercial fleets. Commercial fleets in the US will use 3 phase for DC. For commercial installations, this is a non-issue [0]. It's more efficient to use DC charging at scale than reside on the vehicle's onboard rectifier. >I think north america is going to regret not having 1st class support for 3 phase charging baked into all electrified vehicles in the long term.

That involves expensive external hardware converting AC to DC. I'm talking about native 3 phase charging embedded into every vehicle and the charging port design and specification itself. There are certainly fleets that need rapid charging throughout the day and they will need expensive DC units. There are many fleets that only need lower speed, longer duration overnight charging at the fleet yard. Native 3 phase wit…
If you need charging above that, especially at fleet level, it is cheaper to go with dedicated DC charging like the one's I linked. 48A single phase charging is more than enough for the vast majority of all EV use-cases, even for fleet vehicles. Amazon has the largest EV fleet fielded right now, and that's in the US.
You're complaining about a non-issue. Three phase AC EV charging is a solution in search of a problem.
