Rivian brings EV charging to Yosemite.

The company is opening a new kind of EV charging station in Groveland, CA, just outside of Yosemite National Park. In addition to five charging plugs, the site will also serve as place to get snacks, learn more about EV ownership, and even drop off recyclables in an effort to keep the park clean. The plugs are only available to Rivian owners for now, but the company plans on accommodating non-Rivian EVs eventually.
