Letter: For EVs to work, we need more infrastructure

KENNEBEC JOURNAL • August 6, 2023

I have a friend who was brought up in Maine and was coming home for a much needed visit. She needed to rent a car. When she got to the airport rental company, they told her she had an electric vehicle. She did not remember renting an EV. The rental company told her for an extra $500 she could have a gas car. She was headed from Portland to some very rural parts of Maine. If we are going to make the transition to EVs, we need a lot more infrastructure to make it work. ~ Deborah Cayer, Chesterville
