DETROIT (AP) — A couple of blocks from the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, Electrify America is about to open an indoor charging station that lets drivers relax in a lounge while their electric vehicle batteries are being filled up.
On Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles, Tesla is building a combination drive-in restaurant, movie theater and charging station.
Several convenience store chains have set up charging stations outside their businesses and offer food, restrooms and 24-hour service for EV owners.
He said he doesn't necessarily think charging stations with more amenities will become a big attraction for most EV owners.
Sometimes, businesses near charging stations are closed, and there's no place to go while charging.
