Europe's EV charging network expands, making road trips easier

Electric vehicle road trips in Europe are becoming more feasible due to a significant increase in charging infrastructure. Public EV charging points have grown to over 1.2 million across 32 European countries, nearly five times the number in 2020, with a notable rise in fast and ultra-fast chargers. This expansion is shifting the focus from range anxiety to integrating charging into the travel experience. Countries like the Netherlands offer a dense network with high charge point availability per capita, making them ideal for EV exploration, while Luxembourg's compact size and well-signposted routes also cater well to electric vehicle travelers.
