4 potential sites for EV charging hubs and robotaxi depots
We read 29 listings for land, yards and industrial outdoor storage in our markets this past week. These 4 have the room, access and power for a fleet charging hub or a robotaxi depot: Austin, Miami, Nashville and Dallas. Each gets a depot score out of 100 on 7 factors, from power and zoning to robotaxi demand nearby, and sits next to a working robotaxi depot scored the same way.
