Carmakers work to add electric charging stations

Excerpt:

Consumers, carmakers figured, would be content with charging their cars at home, at the office and perhaps the local movie theater and would embrace a new class of electrified vehicles. After all, that would be enough for most Americans’ commute, they assumed.

“What we learned is people want to use their cars beyond a single charge range; they want to take longer trips, to drive like they were always used to driving,” said Robert Healey, head of electric vehicle infrastructure at BMW of North America.

That means easy access to fast, public charging stations that make a road trip in an electric car no different from one in a gas-powered SUV.
