. Not every station from the partnership between GM, Flying J, and EVgo has pull-through spaces, but nearly all of them have reliable Delta hardware, canopies to keep the rain and sun off, 350 kW speeds, Plug&Charge support, and an array of truck stop amenities that you won’t find at the typical gas station. Even with my slower-charging Chevy Bolt EUV pulling a trailer , it was still a pleasant experience.
But, problems start to happen when 3 or 4 people show up, as speeds cut in half. The EVgo stations split power between the two plugs, and I’m not sure what increments they apportion the kilowatts in. If more than 4 people show up at these, a frustrating line could form. If dozens of people showed up, it would be a big damned problem.
“The future of EV charging is larger stall count locations, high-power charging, and designing around features that customers love – such as pull-through access, canopies and convenient amenities. Through this next evolution of EVgo and GM’s esteemed collaboration, the future of EV charging is here,” said Dennis Kish, President at EVgo.
