A UK-centric Electric Vehicles community, where discussion/news of the wider European continent is welcome.

All discussion of EVs (and hybrids for the moment), charging networks, etc, welcome!

No USA/Americas news unless it is relevant to the UK/Europe - most of the existing EV communities on Lemmy are awash with US discussion, please use one of those. US news and discussion will be removed.

The main "global" EV community is !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net

If anyone’s interested, this can be very helpful. Please use a browser, the mobile apps don’t show half the data. This is all UK hubs of 5 rapids, up to 32 I think is the record. It’s updated often when they go live.

What I found with zap map, THE BEST APP, is it’s very confusing for new users who can’t work out what it’s telling them. This gets around that issue, it shows you the public access tesla locations (ie not just tesla cars) as they don’t always advertise it, it’s pretty good. It doesn’t show the prices but it’s all contactless payment units apart from tesla and a few others where you’ll need an app to pay.

I’ve found it helps with long trips. Also as it’s quite complex some data might be slightly out of date but if you double check your other apps it will become clear.

Enjoy!

Hmm yes in that case, it could be problematic to import the data to those other sources. They don't want data copied from other map services to avoid legal issues. They only want things you find yourself in the physical world or from open aerial surveys.

I have been to many of them, the gps data is all correct so you can navigate using this map by clicking the navigate option to CarPlay or Google maps. If someone wants to add the data to another map you just need to export the KML file, or download the csv for excel and import to a new map.
