TWC Podcast #60: Where Civilized People Charge
By The Watt Car Staff – March 31, 2022
This week, we crunch the numbers to determine just how expensive charging an EV is, as well as offer some tips for those looking to outfit their home for their first EV. From there, it’s onto the news with California’s proposed gas-tax offset that will also payout to EV owners, NHTSA resets CAFE standards, potentially costing Stellantis dearly, Electrify America builds EV charging stations for civilized people, and more.
