High public charger pricing - war on EVs?

[K6CCC]

I was just very frustrated to see some great new charging options open up at some gas stations near me only to discover they're $0.79/kW

OUCH! BTW, that KWH not KW.

As said in an earlier post, the highest I have paid was $0.72. That was the most expensive of the local to me Tesla SuperChargers (and I did not have a subscription). That was also in the first week after purchase and I only had L1 at home (not even close to enough to make up for a round trip to work). Now I have my FCSP at home so essentially never have a need to fast charge locally. However EVGo just opened an 8 stall 350KW rate charger not far from here that is $0.50 / KWH. For DCFC, that's not bad for around here. This is the Los Angeles area, so some of the highest electric rates in the country.

30 cents plus tax plus fees. 38 cents with those by Daytona.



Plug in. Done.

Open Ford app. Activate charger.

Or, open EA app. Activate charger.

Not how it worked for me. The Tesla charger was very simple in comparison. I don't know the reason.
