By now, there are over 100,000 charging stations for electric cars all around Europe. Yellow ones are large scale and high-rate chargers, while little white dots denote smaller stations such as local parking lots.

There is a serious asymmetric rate of development among European countries, it sure reflects income levels among countries, but there are notable exceptions:

Germany has a ton of stations, usually privately funded - the massive car industry supports the development of charging points.

France is seriously underdeveloped compared to its large European counterparts (UK and Germany). Italy and Spain have made virtually zero progress to accommodate the use of electric vehicles.

The Norwegians have amazing subsidies for electric vehicle owners, and it shows in the data. They own by far the most electric cars compared to the number of cars on the road. It isn't even a contest.

Estonia is not one of the wealthier countries of Europe, but a national policy geared toward clean energy use and a commitment to an electric car infrastructure by the government has proven once again how forward thinking these Estonians can be. Here's a former Soviet country that has proven that moving away from fossil fuel use is not an economically expensive decision, but a viable one.

The sales of electric cars market is dominated by a number of key models, but Tesla seems to be getting serious competition from German and French manufacturers in particular. The Renault Zoe was an absolute hit for the budget-conscious and energy-conscious consumer.
