EV drivers can now take advantage of new features from Google Maps and Google Search. The most notable is EV charger locations searchable on Google Maps. Additionally, users can now search for hotels with EV chargers on Google Maps.
EV charging locations listed on Google Maps also now include information about the charging stations. Users can see the number of chargers available as well as the kW of each charger. Google Maps also lists the brand of charging station. This is helpful because many EV drivers are members of one program or another, such as ChargePoint or Electrify America, and therefore prefer to charge with that company to take advantage of lower rates for members.
