US targets Japan over EV charging standards in tariff clash

As tariff negotiations between the US and Japan intensify, Washington has turned a critical eye toward Japan’s electric vehicle (EV) charging standards, identifying the country’s CHAdeMO protocol as a significant non-tariff barrier. American officials have voiced frustration that Tesla’s and other US automakers’ charging systems are excluded from Japanese government subsidies, a point expected to take center stage in the upcoming second round of ministerial-level trade talks.
