The vast majority of electric charging stations are located in cities. That's no secret to EV owners. Consequently, this urban-based charging network doesn’t bode well for the travel prospects of future EV models. France is introducing a new incentive program for that reason, helping suburban and rural fuel stations electrify.
On August 16, 2022, the French government allotted €10M (~$10.5M USD) to co-finance electric charging station deployments at independent service stations in municipalities of “intermediate or rural density”.
