It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Combined Charging System. Depending on what area of the world you’re in, it’s one of the main standards for fast EV charging.

In this context, it allows for faster charging DC charging. It is a normal charging plug plus two big DC charging pins. It builds upon the lower throughout (US market here) J1772 port such that a CCS vehicle can use either standard, but a J1772 vehicle without the extra pins cannot use CCS. I think all of the PHEVs on the market use J1772 exclusively, so they cannot physically connect a CCS cable for fast charging. Not a big deal when you still have a gas engine.
