Hmmm... 400 volt single phase. Looks like we'll be buying transformers and new battery chargers to make the 'new standard' work. Good for infrastructure parts vendors, bad for the consumer and city that has to pay for it all.

7 million plug-in vehicles (can you say RV?) use commonly available 110v and 220v plugs - same as can be used in an electric car.
