Canada is littered with 50kw chargers or 100+kw chargers that only give you 40kw for some reason

Campsite in Banff

Near the farthest point from home. Bow lake on the ice fields parkway

You can adjust your speed up or down to end at each charger with the same terrifying sequence of messages (and position yourself for blistering 50+kw speeds for max time lol)

2023 Bolt EV Trip report: 5,500 mile North American road trip in 10 days!

Showing great range after driving slowly for a while

Middle of nowhere charger in Alberta powered by solar panels in the foreground (technically powered by everything in the grid together but)

These bad boys talk big talk but like to give you 42kw

Chargepoint chargers were often our favorites. One tap of our EVgo physical card and we were charging for free with our credit in seconds. Was 90 degrees here so we popped the hood

Somewhere in Jasper or banff

Glacier NP. The entire going to the sun road I think made our range go up. 30 mph speeds are cheat code. If you’re wondering if you’ll make it across the answer is yes at any SOC

Bow lake on the ice fields parkway

Good dog

Tired dog

“But lithium mines!!”

Sleepy dog

Blazer EV

Battery was a little cold, but almost got up to the max charge rate

The cables are short and thin way easier to move around then EA. The magic dock worked perfectly great experience.
