Click the map above and zoom in to see the electric vehicle charging stations along the coast-to-coast Lincoln Highway in 1914. This map was produced by the Electric Vehicle Association of America.

Some of the charging stations of the period were rated as high as 150 Amps. Perhaps this was an early precursor of the Tesla Motors Supercharger network. For more details on the state of EV charging 100 years ago, see Scott Wilson’s compilation of Early Electric Car Charging photos.
