Who has a V2G EV installation
Posted by: @majordennisbloodnokPosted by: @batpredPosted by: @majordennisbloodnokI agree, but a word of caution. V2X is also sometimes used in a different context making for quite a confusion. My VW ID3 supports V2X in the sense that it as a vehicle talks to other vehicles (the X meaning any other vehicles) to share information about speed, position, traffic incidents and so forth. This is a far cry, of course, from V2X in the sense of bidirectional charging. If you’re researching V2X compatibility, double and triple check which V2X the document is referring to.
😆 😆 marketing vs precision...

No. It's the use of the same acronym for different concepts.
We're well aware that AI, as another example, could mean both Artificial Intelligence or Artificial Insemination. However, the context of any AI conversation makes it unlikely you'd confuse the two except for comedic effect. The problem with V2X is both concepts are applicable to electric vehicles, so it's necessary to exercise far more care in understanding which is being referenced.
I appreciate that it is very likely to cause confusion. Just the cynical in me has seen this lack of precision in plenty of marketing materials and when it does not work as you'd expect, someone points out: "ah, but did you not read this was a lab feature?" 🤣
