How many EV charging stations are there between San Jose and Monterey?

Zevvy has 640 charging locations mapped within 9 mi of the 71 mi route. 157 locations have DC fast charging; the rest are AC or not recorded.

Can I drive from San Jose to Monterey in an EV?

Yes, on the chargers we have mapped. The longest stretch without a DC fast charger inside the 9 mi corridor is 10 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 charging stops.

What charging connectors are available on the San Jose to Monterey route?

J1772 (Type 1) at 475 locations, CCS1 at 103 locations, NACS (Tesla) at 102 locations, CHAdeMO at 51 locations and Type 2 AC at 1 location. Each location is counted once per connector type it offers.

Where is the longest gap without a fast charger on the San Jose to Monterey drive?

It is the 10 mi stretch after EV Range Charging Station, before EVgo Car Charging Station. Charge to cover at least that distance before entering it.

Which charging networks operate on the San Jose to Monterey route?

ChargePoint (39 locations), Tesla (including non-tesla) (2 locations), Blink Charging (1 location), EVGateway (1 location), eVgo Network (1 location) and Red E Charge (1 location). The remaining 595 locations have no operator recorded in our dataset.

How many charging stops you need, San Jose to Monterey

Stops are the number of times a car must add range to cover 71 mi, assuming 70% of rated range is usable between stops (the buffer that highway speeds, load and arrival reserve actually take). Formula: stops = ceil(71 / usable range) − 1.

Rated range	Usable between stops	Enough chargers on route
150 mi	105 mi	No stop needed
200 mi	140 mi	No stop needed
250 mi	175 mi	No stop needed
300 mi	210 mi	No stop needed
