We've come a long way since the days of sitting on a 25kW Bosch unit at the back of some Chevy dealership, slowly watching the 5% bars tick up and hoping the next location is more powerful/convenient/has more than one stall.
But has DC fast-charging hardware expanded where it's needed? And what does the future hold for power levels, new manufacturers and models, and matching the right hardware with an appropriate location?
In the 62nd episode of Coast-to-Coast EV's, hosts Eric, Walter, and Steve, are joined by Rangeway CEO Zak Winnick -- aka @CurrentHeading / formerly @WyldWattage -- to unpack all things hardware, through the lens of the US and Canadian DCFC landscape.
The crew look at how hardware breaks out by network, region, and site type, as well as zooming in on key manufacturers and models that have defined EV travel in North America, for better or worse!
This is an enlightening exploration of DCFC hardware data and, more importantly, gives all you EV nerds the opportunity to praise or pan the charger OEMs you encounter most often.
