Where Can You Find an Electric Vehicle Charging Network? Estonia
MatthewVD writes "How hard can it be to find an electric car charger? So hard that New York Times reporter David Broder had to drive in circles and drain his Tesla's battery. Charging infrastructure has been ultimate chicken or egg problem for electric cars adoption but finally, there's a good test case. In Estonia, drivers need to travel only 37 miles to reach a CHAdeMO quick charger. There are 165 of the direct current plug-in chargers, that can charge a car's lithium battery in 30 minutes for an average cost of $3.25. The question now is, will the electric vehicles follow?"
"It's 1000 kilometers to Estonia. We've got a full charge, half a packet of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses... Hit it."

Estonia now has three charging stations for each and every electric car in the country. Good Job!
I told some Estonian fellows that they’re slow.
“What did they reply?”
“Nothing, but they beat me up the following day. “
Does anyone else find it slightly ironic that Tesla's charging stations are using direct current...
You wouldn't want the charging station to kill any wayward elephants, now would you? I mean, think of the elephants

You are welcome on my lawn.
The difference is that Estonian Officials are cheaper... so the Green movement could afford them.
They have less poverty, less crime, less people in jail... I'll get modded down but compare their demographics to the US. Notice anything?
You mean, aside the attempted fallacy of equivocation?
