Charged here yesterday and was impressed. Nice and bright under the canopy. The lounge is pretty cool. A bit on the smaller side but has refreshments. The bathroom is also a great addition. I also appreciated having ample trashcans. If you use EA sites - you might notice how people decide to just litter around them unfortunately
This looks like it’s near their North American HQ, which makes total sense.
The article literally says it next to the HQ.
watch the best info here:
I like it, but it does look expensive.
A roof - how nice!
Where is the sign that shows the price before you pull in? Like how gas stations have when they compete for customers.
I’ll have to try and go over there this weekend and try it out. Anything I should look for anyone would be interested in that wasn’t covered?
Looks nice. The lounge is kind of meh though. But the bathroom and charging station itself looks good.
It’s just nice to see these come online along with the Ultium / EVGo locations. All have gone from announcement to launch in about, or slightly under a year. We also have NEVI awarded sites under construction in Ohio. I think the charging landscape is going to look so much better in a year from now.
Agreed. 2024 will be a turning point, and 2025 could be really good.
Probably won’t see these across America, but it’s a great first step. They understand that the current experience is not up to Mercedes-Benz standards
They’ve entered into contracts to install them at Simon Mall and Buc-ee’s locations. It looks like they’re planning for roughly 80 locations in the next year.
Per the article:
The first Mercedes-Buc-ee’s chargers will be installed in Texas, Florida, Alabama and Georgia by the end of 2023. Further expansion is expected in 2024.
So the Georgia locations will be Adairsville and/or Fort Valley. I’m hoping they’re prioritizing Adairsville because Fort Valley already has V3 SC’s that will be open to Mercedes vehicles next year anyway.

The Adairsville Buc-ee’s has V3 Superchargers as well.
