VISITING EVERY DCFC IN COLORADO - PART 3

EV Channels Review

This livestream documents an extensive DC fast charger tour through Colorado's Front Range urban corridor, focusing on Fort Collins and the Denver metro area. The hosts utilize the GMC Hummer EV 3X, a tri-motor, AWD electric pickup, for the journey. While the vehicle's immense power and off-road capabilities are highlighted, the primary focus remains on testing public charging infrastructure. The review notes the Hummer's significant charging costs, with one session exceeding $70 for 74% charge. The video also touches on the challenges of navigating urban traffic and the practicalities of EV charging, including issues with charger activation, pricing structures (like EVgo's peak/off-peak rates and session fees), and the need for better amenities at charging locations. Despite some technical glitches and the sheer scale of the task, the hosts provide valuable real-world data on charger performance and user experience.
