Porsche Cars North America has signed an agreement that gives drivers access to ChargePoint’s network within the Porsche Charging Service.
The collaboration between the German automaker and the EV charging network will boost the number of chargers available to Porsche customers to more than 86,000 across the US.
Timo Resch, president and CEO of Porsche Cars North America, said it was a significant step as the automaker “look[s] forward to the arrival of both the new Taycan arriving at Porsche Centers this summer and also the all-new Macan Electric later this year.”
The My Porsche app enables drivers to easily find EV charging stations, use them, and pay for the charge. The ChargePoint partnership joins the existing integration with Electrify America, allowing Porsche EV and PHEV customers to charge at ChargePoint and roaming partner charging stations via the My Porsche app.
With this latest addition, all Porsche Charging Service Customers can charge at more than 75% of all J1772 and CCS1 charging ports across the US. These additional charging stations will become available in Q4 2024.
In late 2023, Porsche announced the planned implementation of the North American Charging Standard (NACS) charging port for future products in North America. It’s also exploring adapter solutions for its existing EVs to access the Tesla Supercharger network, starting in the first half of 2025.
