BYD: The majority of the BYD cars, such as the Atto 3, Han, and Tang, are V2L enabled and normally make use of a standard V2L connector irrespective of the charging port and adapter type.
MG: The MG electric cars, such as the MG ZS EV and MG4, normally enable the V2L function through the adapter. Validity Check model year.
Kia/Hyundai: The Kia EV6, Hyundai IONIQ 5, and IONIQ 6 enable the V2L function through the interior connector or external V2L connector.
Other Brands: The other electric cars, such as the Ford, Volkswagen, Nissan, and other brands, might have the V2L function and other functions as well. The things to always check are the car's manual and car's specifications.
Identify the Correct Connector Type
V2L adapters will actually be compatible through specific charging port standards. The choice of the wrong connector may lead to safety risks and/or incompatibility.
Type 2 (CCS): It is widely used in European and most Asian EV, such as BYD, MG, Kia, and Volkswagen.
Type 1 (J1772): North American and certain Asian EV Standard.
CHAdeMO: Nissan Leaf and Mitsubishi ones that are older are equipped with it, but fewer newer models are equipped with it.

Medium Power (2.2 kW – 3.5 kW): Ideally suitable for camping devices, power tools, refrigerators, entertainment, etc.
High Power (above 3.5 kW): Actually powered at higher power levels up to about 200W, also known as home backup power, an electric stove, air conditioner, air conditioning units, etc, depending on the actual capacity of the car to accept it.
