Brazil Now Has 16,880 Charging Points for Electric Vehicles, 59% Growth in One Year, but the Lack of Infrastructure Still Concerns Consumers and Challenges the Automotive Sector.

The number of charging points for electric vehicles continues to expand in Brazil. According to data released by the Brazilian Electric Vehicle Association (ABVE), the country already has 16,880 charging stations, a growth of 59% between August 2024 and September 2025. The news was announced by MotorShow this Monday, September 15.

This increase represents a ratio of one charging point for every 18 electrified vehicles in circulation, according to a survey conducted by ABVE in partnership with the charging solutions company Tupi.

Fleet of Electric and Hybrid Vehicles Growing

The survey indicates that the national fleet of plug-in electrified vehicles reached 302,225 units by the end of August. Of this total, 44.5% are 100% battery electric vehicles (BEV), which directly depend on a robust network of chargers. The remainder consists of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), which combine electric motors and combustion engines.

Availability Is Still a Concern for Consumers

Despite the expansion of infrastructure, the lack of charging points is still seen as the biggest barrier to purchasing electric vehicles in Brazil. A survey conducted by the portal Webmotors showed that 54% of consumers point to the scarcity of charging stations as the main obstacle.

This is followed by the difficulty of reselling vehicles (49%) and insecurity regarding the technology (44%). However, according to the CEO of Webmotors, Eduardo Jurcevic, this scenario is changing.

“If before the majority refused due to a lack of safety, today, with the investment from automakers in information, there has been a shift in this mindset and the biggest concern now is tied to practical infrastructure issues about how to implement it in their daily lives,” he emphasized.

Expansion of Fast and Slow Chargers

Data from ABVE also reveals that fast chargers have been advancing at a faster pace than slow chargers. In the six months leading up to August, the expansion was 59%, totaling 3,855 fast charging stations operational in Brazil. In contrast, slow charging equipment grew by only 5%, totaling 13,025 points.

In total, the country already counts 1,499 cities equipped with public and semi-public charging stations, demonstrating not only territorial expansion but also the strengthening of the existing network.

The advancement of electric vehicles in Brazil directly depends on the expansion of the charging network. With a 59% growth in one year and a significant increase in sales, experts indicate that the challenge now is to ensure accessible and reliable infrastructure throughout the national territory.

The trend indicates that the greater the availability of charging points, the greater the consumers’ confidence in adopting the technology and accelerating the energy transition in the Brazilian automotive sector.

Expansion of Fast and Slow Chargers

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

Bricklayers off the scaffolding? New system uses autonomous drones to position bricks and apply adhesive in the air, creating walls with two flying robots working as a team.

The labor shortage has changed its face in Brazil: companies hire 80% more, but workers stay only 6.8 months in the job, the service market becomes a “revolving door,” and businesses spend increasingly more to train teams that soon leave.

China has ceased to be just a factory for cheap products and now challenges health giants: Chinese laboratories are advancing in medicines, while other countries recalculate their medical dependence.

Scientists from the USA have buried two seismometers in Antarctica at a depth of about 2.4 km under the ice, the deepest ever recorded, and are using the IceCube observatory structure to enhance earthquake monitoring, tsunami alerts, and nuclear test surveillance.

A photo taken by chance in the interior of Australia rediscovered a plant that the entire world had considered extinct for sixty years.
