As long as there is a common standard in each continent, it would be fine - unlike electricity and appliance, your car doesn't usually travel out of the continent with you.
I think you’re missing the point. Of course I’m not talking about taking your vehicle from country to country. We could’ve avoided the situation we’re in right now by having one global standard. Now it’s Tesla vs. everyone else in the United States. Utterly ridiculous and backwards thinking.
