Big update coming in Google Map, accurate information about EV charging stations will be available

India's electric vehicle (EV) market is expanding quickly, although it is still smaller than that of other nations. Electric vehicles will also need charging stations, just like petrol and diesel vehicles do. Electric vehicle charging stations have been installed in numerous major cities and are still being constructed; however, the locations of these stations are not readily accessible to the general public. Google Maps is currently undergoing an update, which will allow you to see information about charging stations directly within the map.

A new report claims that Google is beta-testing for charging station feature for electric vehicles. A public update of Google Maps will be released after the beta test is completed. After the update, users will be able to apply filters for charging stations in Google Maps.

This feature of Google Maps is being tested on Android apps. After the introduction of this feature, while using the maps, users will get the option of vehicle type, that is, you will be able to tell the maps what kind of vehicle you are driving. After that “Electric” has to be selected.

After selecting this, you will start seeing nearby charging stations. AI has also been supported with Google Maps and this AI will give information about charging stations. Google is also preparing to provide information about electric vehicle charging stations in real time and its beta testing is also going on.
