Some California Tesla Drivers Saw Holiday Charging Bottleneck

If you’re hitting the road for the holidays and have an electric vehicle, you may not love the story about the bottlenecks at California charging stations over the Thanksgiving weekend.

Now, to be fair, it is one of the busiest travel weekends of the year, and the stations with the long lines were generally between Los Angeles and San Francisco. But Jim Stack doubts that’ll be a problem in Arizona.

Stack is president of the Phoenix Chapter of the Electric Auto Association. He joined The Show to explain what happened last month.

Mark Brodie is a co-host of The Show, KJZZ’s locally produced news magazine. Since starting at KJZZ in 2002, Brodie has been a host, reporter and producer, including several years covering the Arizona Legislature, based at the Capitol.
