U.S. electric-vehicle sales have continued to slide since tax incentives were phased out last year. But America's EV charging infrastructure keeps growing, with Tesla doing some of the heaviest lifting.
The company reported that Supercharger infrastructure grew 15% year-over-year in the third quarter, with 8,904 stations globally-good for 84,465 plugs.
