It will be the first of its kind in the U.K. Meanwhile, last September, a gas station in Takoma Park, Maryland became the first in the U.S. toIn a statement Tuesday, Gridserve said the British forecourt would open this summer and use "superchargers" able to provide up to 350 kilowatts of power. According to Pod Point, an independent provider of electric vehicle charging, a typical electric car will take a little under eight hours to go from an empty to full charge using a 7 kW charging point. The firm adds that some cars would be able to add as much as 100 miles of range in around 35 minutes if a "rapid charger" of 50 kW is used.
While electric vehicles are becoming the car of choice for an increasing number of drivers, they do face challenges, not least when it comes to perceptions surrounding range and charging infrastructure.
