Add Electric Charging station location info.
As as EV driver, it would be nice if electric charging station locations was built into the app so I don't have to go to yet another app just for this info. The data is widely available from here
http://www.afdc.energy.gov/fuels/electricity_locations.html
and here
and here
One problem is there is not one site that has all the info, so I'm forced to check all three. Having all this data within Waze would allow me to stay inside the app without having to leave it.

Waze is my favorite app and next year I'm in line for the Cybertruck which is why I looked up whether Waze has any plans for adding such an awesome feature. This would be incredible and hope they'll consider it especially for those in the USA!

Also include NextCharge, one of the apps that has the highest charging points in Europe!

Let the users report charging stations, just as we now report hazards etc. This will be an efficient way to build the database without effort on Waze's side. Works great for Plugshare.

Driving EV from 2015. I'm understand that adding new EV charging point require a lot of time and money in real world. But I don't see any reason why it very hard to show this charging points (added by maps editors) on the map. Idea come from 2013, hope this will be available in 2020. 7(!) years...

Please add the option of selecting Car charging points as point of interest, same as you do for petrol stations.
Thank You Adrian -

In addition to EV charging stations, Waze should include other alternative fuels, such as natural gas. In several european countries these vehicles are much more abundant than EVs, and they suffer the same lack of support in Waze.

I decided against buying the base Tesla Model 3 because it didn't allow for nav with traffic and neither Android Auto to use Waze with it. My future EV now on order does not have built in nav but has Android Auto so I will continue to use Waze for navigation but having integrated charging stations directly in Waze would be SO much better. I add my voice to all the others here.

If Waze cannot handle mapping the charging stations, they could at least allow users to flag them.

It’s been almost six years since this suggestion was initiated. EV infrastructures have increased significantly and so has the EVs on road since then.
This is a much needed feature in this near perfect navigation app.

Would be so great if you can see charging stations on the map the same way you can now (choose to) see petrol stations. Simply in settings where you can now choose type of fuel add electric would be awesome and make Waze even further the leading nav-app.
