GM promises 2,700 new fast EV chargers to catch up to Tesla's Supercharger network

General Motors is teaming up with the EVgo charging network to add 2,700 fast-charging connectors in cities across the U.S. 

The Chevy Bolt EV maker announced the new charging infrastructure Friday, promising to add fast-charging stations in more than 35 cities and suburbs within the next five years. The first batch of stations will open in early 2021. Already EVgo has 800 fast-charging stations, and this partnership should add at least 650 stations by 2025.

Each station usually has at least four charging ports that can juice up EV batteries anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes. The new stations will charge at 100 to 350 kilowatts to keep up with faster EV batteries becoming more available in cars.  Read more...
