Ritzville serves as a critical junction for EV drivers traveling through the high desert of Eastern Washington. With five different charging locations clustered near the intersection of I-90 and US-395, you won’t have trouble finding a plug, though the experience is very much geared toward utility rather than sightseeing.
The charging landscape here is dominated by travel centers and gas stations, making it easy to handle logistics like bathroom breaks and quick meals. While most stations offer little in the way of shade or scenery, the proximity to established fast-food chains and convenience stores ensures that you can get back on the road quickly. It is a reliable, no-frills transit point for those heading between Seattle and Spokane.
