Alternative markets have extra established EV infrastructure.

“If you drive around Europe, it’s very easy,” stated Jay Joseph, American Honda’s vp of sustainability and industry construction. “There are apps that direct you to fat or petite charging stations, and there are particular corridors which are smartly supported. Like getting from Germany to Italy — it’s easy.

“Their access to DC fast charging is comparable to access to gasoline, and that’s completely lacking in United States,” Joseph stated, noting that customers won’t be able to “get over the hump” to shop for an EV till they’re assured they may be able to get round.

“Anything that supports development of charging infrastructure to give people confidence is critical,” he stated.

Tesla’s method for infrastructure is profitable enthusiasts.

“When you see a Tesla Supercharger network, you know what it is. You see it along the route and you have a little more confidence,” Joseph stated.

However the place Tesla’s community truly excels, he stated, is the upkeep.

“They’ve got somebody on-site monitoring the equipment, they’re monitoring it electronically and remotely, and they fix it fast.”
