To make it even easier for EV drivers to get around, Google Maps got another big update in November to show EV fast-charging options with 50kW or higher chargers.Īfter seeing a more than 60% increase in EV charging stations compared to last year, Google Maps is updating its services once again, making it almost effortless to get around in an electric vehicle. The feature was expanded to include electric vehicles in July 2022, allowing users to find the most energy-efficient routes. The search giant took it a step further by offering more efficient and eco-friendly route planning rather than just showing the typical shortest travel time. In 2021, Google Maps began rolling out features to help EV drivers plan a trip with stress-free routes and charging stop recommendations, using newly developed routing algorithms to search and filter for the most convenient charging stations.
