One downside of owning an electric car is that you can’t simply stop and recharge like how conventional cars go to petrol stations and refuel once you run out of juice. If electric cars are ever going to replace their gas-guzzling ancestors, we’ll inevitably need a few more places to plug in and charge up. Google started using Prius as their driverless car for their Google Street View, and now they’ve added a new database of EV, and that is Google Maps with locations of all the charging stations in US. This will easily enable drivers of EV to locate places to get their juice replenished while on longer trips or when out of town. Now it seemed more ‘fun’ to own an EV, though it won’t be fun if you run out of juice or the battery crack the hell out of you.
