(Reuters) - E-commerce giant Amazon hopes a new partnership with EVgo, powered by its Alexa voice assistant, will help smooth the electric vehicle charging experience for owners.
Announced on Thursday at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the new service aims to streamline the process of locating, initiating and paying for a charging session -- still pain points for many EV drivers -- according to EVgo, one of the nation's largest EV charging network operators.
