How many EV charging stations are there between Philadelphia and Washington, DC?

Zevvy has 1447 charging locations mapped within 9 mi of the 137 mi route. 294 locations have DC fast charging; the rest are AC or not recorded.

Can I drive from Philadelphia to Washington, DC in an EV?

Yes, on the chargers we have mapped. The longest stretch without a DC fast charger inside the 9 mi corridor is 7 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 0 to 1 charging stops.

What charging connectors are available on the Philadelphia to Washington, DC route?

J1772 (Type 1) at 1167 locations, CCS1 at 218 locations, NACS (Tesla) at 163 locations, CHAdeMO at 123 locations and Type 2 AC at 2 locations. Each location is counted once per connector type it offers.

Where is the longest gap without a fast charger on the Philadelphia to Washington, DC drive?

It is the 7 mi stretch after Flying J EV Charging Station, before Blink Charging Station. Charge to cover at least that distance before entering it.

Which charging networks operate on the Philadelphia to Washington, DC route?

SWTCH - Charge Everywhere (33 locations), ChargePoint (23 locations), Blink Charging (17 locations), Tesla (including non-tesla) (5 locations), Electrify America (2 locations) and EV Connect (2 locations), plus 5 smaller operators. The remaining 1358 locations have no operator recorded in our dataset.
