How many EV charging stations are there between Los Angeles and Sacramento?

Zevvy has 2000 charging locations mapped within 9 mi of the 385 mi route. 368 locations have DC fast charging; the rest are AC or not recorded.

Can I drive from Los Angeles to Sacramento in an EV?

Yes, on the chargers we have mapped. The longest stretch without a DC fast charger inside the 9 mi corridor is 34 mi, so a car that can cover that between stops can make the trip. Across the 150-300 mi range bands below, that works out at 1 to 3 charging stops.

What charging connectors are available on the Los Angeles to Sacramento route?

J1772 (Type 1) at 1668 locations, CCS1 at 277 locations, NACS (Tesla) at 180 locations and CHAdeMO at 162 locations. Each location is counted once per connector type it offers.

Where is the longest gap without a fast charger on the Los Angeles to Sacramento drive?

It is the 34 mi stretch after ChargePoint Charging Station, before Rivian Adventure Network. Charge to cover at least that distance before entering it.

Which charging networks operate on the Los Angeles to Sacramento route?

AmpUp (100 locations), ChargePoint (53 locations), eVgo Network (8 locations), Tesla (including non-tesla) (7 locations), OpConnect (6 locations) and EVCS (5 locations), plus 12 smaller operators. The remaining 1800 locations have no operator recorded in our dataset.

How long does the Los Angeles to Sacramento drive take?

The routing engine puts the 385 mi drive at 6 hr 30 min of driving time, before any charging. Add the time for the charging stops your car needs from the table above.

How many charging stops you need, Los Angeles to Sacramento

Stops are the number of times a car must add range to cover 385 mi, assuming 70% of rated range is usable between stops (the buffer that highway speeds, load and arrival reserve actually take). Formula: stops = ceil(385 / usable range) − 1.
