Electrify America now has more active locations in WA state that does the Tesla supercharger network, although there are a couple routes where Tesla maintains better overall coverage (for now). Electrify America now has 16 locations in WA state up and running, compared to 15 for Tesla. Electrify America also has construction started on 16 additional locations, most of which appear to be nearing completing from looking at PlugShare photos. All of these stations under construction or complete represent cycle 1, with Cycle 2 stations in design and permitting right now.
I have never seen an EA station at full capacity, so cord count is a non issue now, but having cords located in the right place is more valuable than having a million cords in one spot that nobody is at. EA is spreading them out, so we can see wider EV adoption. Tesla is playing the old Airline hub and spoke game, but many of my friends that have Tesla's say there is rarely a supercharger where you need it when you need it. Thats why My E-Tron out performed a Tesla S on a recent road trip, its all about charger location, and charging speed.
Neither appeals to this Standard Range Plus Model 3 owner. Both are too inefficient and more car than our family needs. Bob Wilson
