I bought the cheapest EV (a used Nissan Leaf)

Go to your local Mitsubishi dealership in Europe and you will find the 2025 Outlander PHEV with a CHAdeMO plug. And I believe if you buy a pre-2019 Tesla Model S or Model X, you will have to deal with Tesla's own plug.

I'm guessing it skirts regulations by being a PHEV, since CCS2 is mandatory for DCFC otherwise. Skirting regulations is quite fitting for a PHEV, of course, as that is their raison d'etre.

The outgoing Nissan Leaf also has CHAdeMO and that's a full BEV.

I assume that's grandfathered in by being originally homologated in 2010.

The incoming Leaf has CCS2

the regulations mandate the CCS2 on the charging point, not on the car
