Waze adds feature for EV drivers to find compatible charging stations

Waze said the new EV charging station feature would be available starting this week and rolling out globally "over the coming weeks." (Credit: Provided / Waze) SAN FRANCISCO - Waze, the Google-owned navigation app, is hoping to make it easier for drivers of electric vehicles to find a charging station.The company announced in a blog post on Tuesday that users will now be able to enter their electric vehicle (EV) and plug type into the Waze app to find relevant charging stations along their route. "Charging station information is often inconsistent, outdated or unreliable, creating a major pain point for EV drivers who may navigate to a charging station only to discover they can’t find it or use it," the company said in a statement. "By adding up-to-date EV charging information to the Waze map, it’s even easier to charge your car and get help finding where or when you’ll come across the next station."Waze said the EV data will be reviewed and updated in real-time by its community map editors to ensure accuracy. Waze said the feature was available starting this week and roling out globally "over the coming weeks."But a report published on Wednesday by Electrek noted how the EV Charger finding feature was still showing nearby gas stations instead of chargers for one user.

The world after covid is in need of food not weapons

The shocking image came in from Tallinn. Dozens of women had gathered outside the Russian embassy in the capital of Estonia to protest the sexual violence and rape inflicted on Ukrainian women. Covering their faces with black masks, the women were clad just in shirts. This is a poignant reflection of the brutal times that we are living in. The dark shadow of war is stretching further. This is why speculation is rife in Finland once again. Citizens are being asked to acquaint themselves with techniques of modern warfare. Apart from this, the government has issued orders to put together rations, petroleum products and essential medicines for a period of three to 10 months.

LOS ANGELES - The forecast for the upcoming Winter Olympics in Beijing: Cold with a 100 percent chance of fake snow. This year’s highly anticipated Winter games are actually going to be the first time in Olympic history where athletes will compete on 100% artificial snow.More than 100 snow generators and 300 snow-making guns will work to cover ski slopes.
