EVgo Network Expansion with Pilot/Flying J

 Big nationwide network expansion news today:

"EVgo Inc. (NASDAQ: EVGO) (EVgo), the nation’s largest public fast charging network for electric vehicles (EVs), today announced the first major EVgo eXtend project. The EVgo eXtend project will deploy 2,000 charging stalls at Pilot and Flying J locations across the country in collaboration with General Motors (GM) and Pilot Company."

( Press Release)

For Michigan, I have done a quick cross reference of map of potential sites provided by EVgo with existing Pilot/Flying J locations in Google Maps, and can guess at the following addresses are likely locations being targeted to add EVgo/Ultium 360 DC Fast Charging equipment.



Pilot Travel Centers in Michigan likely to get EVgo eXtend network Charging Stations by the end of 2023:

2424 Wadhams Rd, Smiths Creek, MI 48074

3475 E Washington Rd, Saginaw, MI 48601

7800 W Grand River Ave, Grand Ledge, MI 48837

853 Interchange Dr, Holland, MI 49423

1860 E Napier Ave, Benton Harbor, MI 49022

15901 11 Mile Rd, Battle Creek, MI 49014

195 Baker Rd, Dexter, MI 48130

I am especially excited to see that there are several stops along I-75 in northwest Ohio that are targeted for station additions.  This is a stretch of road that definitely needs and many drivers will use and expansion in charging services.

EVgo in partnership with GM have opened 4 new sites in the metro Detroit area this year with a fifth potentially coming soon.  Look forward to a new site review trip soon to check out all these new locations.
