Tesla has entered into an agreement with Choice Hotels International to install chargers in thousands of additional hotels .
Over the past year, Tesla has established itself as the dominant company in the charging space. Although it was already a pioneer, with NACS – its own charging plug that has become the standard in North America – and the launch of the Universal Wall Connector, its dominance is now even more impressive.
