Electric Cars, Electric Car Charging Station | featured news

After more than $400 million in outlays and months behind schedule, dozens of electric cars have hit the road in Israel, the test site Agassi chose for his Better Place venture. Four stations where the cars can get a new dose of juice when their batteries run out are operating, and the plan is to ramp that number up within months.

The retailer opted not to have the chargers, many of which were outdated, replaced for free under a program in California, saying that customers rarely, if ever, used them.

Retail stores around the USA are installing charging stations for electric vehicles to serve owners of electric cars, bikes and scooters.
