Add Electric to the Preferred fuel type, which will then display electric charging points on the map.
There is no current option in Preferred fuel type for pure Electric. I would like to have this option, which, when selected, displays electric charging points as POIs for my journeys.

Great news! The EV charging stations are now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

I can select my vehicle as an EV but can't select Electric as my preferred fuel🤔

The Philippines exempts hybrid and electric vehicles from its number coding system. I hope this can be incorporated in Waze settings.

Currently, there are only regular, high-octane, and diesel oil types, but I would like to see electricity and hydrogen added in the future.
Hydrogen buses have started running in Japan -

As an EV owner when I travel I want to know where the DCFC are (those are level 3 chargers) The only chargers that pop up on my WAZE are from ChargePoint and those are slow level two chargers (you can take them off all together). Either use a generic app date (say PlugShare) or allow us to search Level 3 chargers on our route. If not, WAZE will no longer get used.

This would really help as battery level details are a big advantage of Google Maps.

It is now over a month since your statement here and I have reinstalled the app numerous times from the Apple Store and no sign of EV coming up as an option on vehicle details or Electric coming up as an option in fuel types. Because of this EV charging does not show on routes as an other fuel type has to be chosen and another vehicle details has to be chosen. Can we please get this sorted out.

Hi. Great app, use it all the time, etc.
A suggestion. Would be incredibly helpful and powerful to have Waze (whether in navigation mode, or just viewing the map) be able to alert EV drivers if they're passing close to charge points that have available charging slots). Finding these at the right time is always difficult, and to have Waze alert in this way would be game-changing. Would need to be able to provide some basic filters, such as minimum charging power, plug type, favourite providers, etc.

Now that EV can be selected, the ability to select diesel or petrol has disappeared.

On cars like the Polestar 2 that have Android Automotive, Waze should be able to estimate how much battery you should have when you get to your destination. If you don't have enough of a charge to get to your destination, Waze should add EV charging stations to your route.

Thanks for bringing this amazing app to the market, has been my road companion for 5+ years.
However feels like it is missing out on the electric EV car revolution.
Have recently switched to full EV (full electric) vehicle and find it impossible to plan drives, automatically selecting, calculating recharging stations based on car characteristics.
Also would love to see a switch replacing “gas-stations” being EV-charging stations (including the ability to select charger types, from slow AC to DC- superchargers – expressed in KWH)
Anyway, thanks for the amazing app and love to see EV being adopted soon -

I am using waze as my primary nav system - and this is certainly missing.
I am forced now to use other solutions -

je ne comprends pas pourquoi une société comme waze qui était à la pointe peux passer a coté des indication de bornes électrique. Et qui ne comprend pas d'électrique dans le types de voitures.
Je dit ça car j'utilise chargemap et que la recherche de borne n'est pas hyper au point et la bascule sur waze bug parfois
Pire sur l'écran android de la voiture -

Electric vehicles have already taken an important place in the world, when do you plan to update charging stations in Israel?

I had to reregister because since this feature advice does not get attention from developers, I use Google and my previous Waze account seems like deleted after not using for a while.
