And most of those were privately funded.

Charging is better than it's ever been. More stations, better reliability, faster speeds, more choices.

Don't make the fear of charging the reason you don't buy one. The more EVs, the more demand for charging, the more chargers get installed. Wash, rinse repeat and gas cars are thing of the past.
