The Power of AI in Finding EV Chargers and EV Fast Charging Stations

Google Maps has been helping people navigate the world since it arrived on the scene. Google has so much navigational data it would make your head spin. Now, it’s becoming a clutch tool for EV drivers. By using their advanced AI, Maps helps you find EV chargers tucked away off the beaten path. Not only does it show you the best chargers around, it also shows you pricing, reliability, and average wait times.


New Updates and Features

1. Unrivaled Search Power: Locate an NACS Charger Port in Seconds

Google’s EV tech cuts through the BS very quickly and can find you a charger in a snap. The NACS charger port is the industry standard across the vast majority of EVs, so whether you’re looking for one of those or a fast charging station, you’ll be able to find one no matter where you are through Google Maps.


2. Details at Your Fingertips

As we mentioned earlier, pricing, reliability, and wait times are all laid out for you. There’s detailed, real-time data on every charging station, meaning you can make informed decisions based on what’s going on right now. An AI that gives your car exactly what it needs.


3. Predictive Analytics

We understand we’re not an AI company. We just appreciate a great EV tool. And if you want accurate estimates on wait times and peak usage periods for your favorite EV charger, you should probably use Google Maps.

All you have to do is plug in your destination and add your charging stops along the way.

It also allows you to plan your journey based on the estimated charge your battery can hold, and add stops at recharging stations accordingly.


How Does It Work?

By stealing user data. Just kidding. You technically agree to it when you accept the terms and conditions. Anyway, their AI gathers the user data – meaning feedback, location information, real-time sensors, and historical patterns – to give you top notch recommendations. It’s as real as it gets, numbers-wise. And the best part is, this AI is getting better every single day, meaning so are your charger recommendations.


Perks for the EV Owner

What does this mean for you, the chin-stroking EV driver?

  1. Convenience: You can quickly locate EV fast charging stations and NACS charger ports wherever you are.

  2. Efficiency: You get real-time data that ensures you always have the latest info on charger availability and wait times.

  3. Savings: You can compare prices to choose the most economical charging options.

  4. Reliability: User reviews and ratings give you the lowdown on the most dependable chargers around.

While we all know we can count on Google for literally any problem we might have, it’s only natural that they’ve expanded into the EV market. They help you optimize your EV life in exchange for a little data. It’s an evolution in how we move, live, and connect. So, if you’re still worried about low-charge panic, don’t be.
