Creating a superior driver experience behind the scenes
EVs were born in an era of connectedness and new technologies. That’s something we think about every day at ChargePoint. How can we help make fueling not just different, but better? Since 2007, ChargePoint has been leading in innovation. So far, we’ve been awarded more than 80 patents that make electric vehicle charging more intuitive, more accessible and easier for site hosts, fleet managers and drivers worldwide. When you’re asking consumers to change a pattern; something they’ve known forever, you have to meaningfully demonstrate how the experience can positively impact their lives.
When it comes to fueling, electric vehicles are more closely related to the device in your pocket than they are to even the latest gas-powered model. With a smart, networked Level 2 AC home or workplace charger from ChargePoint, savvy EV drivers can take advantage of off-peak demand electricity rates or a generous employee benefit, all from the highly rated ChargePoint app. The app allows you to schedule charging, conveniently queue up at work while others are charging or start a session using your voice with Amazon Alexa. In-vehicle integrations with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and certain vehicles’ infotainment systems put charging at your fingertips, even when you’re not parked.
With the ability to connect their phone directly with the vehicle through CarPlay, drivers now have access to ChargePoint app information right on the vehicle display. The seamless connection between the app and vehicle represents the next step in how drivers and passengers will experience mobility in the future, accelerated by the global shift to electric drive.
ChargePoint has hundreds of roaming partners. With roaming agreements, there are now more than 475K ports available on the ChargePoint network, over 51K of those ports in Europe alone — nearly doubling the number of charging locations in a single year.
A driver plugs into the ChargePoint network every 1 second.
Since 2007, ChargePoint has delivered over 113 million charges, equivalent to 3.6 billion miles driven on electricity and counting.
