PLEASE MAKE EVERY HIGHWAY EV CHARGING HUB LIKE THIS!

EV Channels Review

This video showcases an impressive new EV charging hub located off the highway near Schliez, Germany, which the reviewer, Kyle, hails as potentially the best off-highway charging hub design he's encountered. The site, a collaboration between Tesla and EnBW, features 40 Tesla Superchargers (V3) and 16 additional 300 kW Alpitronic chargers, with provisions for future expansion. Kyle praises the strategic location on cheap, rural land, allowing for the construction of extensive amenities like a charging lounge (currently under construction) and ample charging stalls. He highlights the thoughtful design, including dual power feeds and the ability for chargers to share power, as well as the inclusion of a CHAdeMO and a 22 kW AC port for non-CCS vehicles. While acknowledging the site is still under construction and not yet widely known, Kyle believes such large-scale, well-equipped hubs are crucial for widespread EV adoption and sets a new standard for charging infrastructure, suggesting similar concepts are needed globally, including in the US.
