Official does not mean ready (or sensible). When does the first car using SAE fast charge hit the road, and how long until the number of SAE-quick-charge-compatible cars outnumber the CHADEMO ones? "first vehicles to use this system will reach the market in 2013". I would understand some sort of compromise which both plans ahead for the SAE standard AND provides access for the tens of thousands of CHADEMO cars that will be on the road by then... but as it is, most of the stations being built with this plan are level 2 J1772, which will be supported by everyone. My (biased, leaf-owning) opinion: Build stations we know will be used, and if demand ends up being there, build more or retrofit the current ones. Nissan and Mitsubishi win the leading advantage in this case.
