The City of Hawthorne has installed six new electric vehicle charging stations that city employees can use at three government sites: the police department, public works headquarters, and city hall. Each site will host two charging stations. These stations provide roughly 25 to 30 miles of range for each hour that a vehicle is plugged in. This level of power output will allow drivers to top off their batteries within a few hours. Even if a driver plugs in a vehicle with a battery charge dwindling close to 0%, they should be back to a full tank of charge within 8 hours.
