LEBANON (AP) — Cracker Barrel, the chain of popular restaurants found along interstates, is unveiling the first electric vehicle fast-charging station in Tennessee as part of their plan to install two dozen charging stations at locations across the state.
U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander and President and CEO of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc. Sandy Cochran will be at the Lebanon location off of Interstate 40 on Monday to show off the new DC Fast Charging Station.
Julie Davis, a company spokeswoman, said the fast chargers can charge an electronic vehicle's battery up to 80 percent in a half-hour, much faster than the traditional vehicle chargers. The company expects to have all their vehicle charging stations installed by the end of November.
