Electrify America and Porsche have extended their charging agreement, which now includes the all-new Macan Electric. The charging benefit will provide owners of the Macan Electric with one year of complementary 30-minute charging sessions at Electrify America charging stations coast-to-coast.
The all-new Macan Electric is the latest addition to the Porsche vehicle lineup. Its 800-volt architecture supports a 270-kilowatt (kW) potential charging speed under ideal conditions, making it one of the fastest charging speeds in the industry.
“The Macan Electric is perfectly complemented by our Hyper-Fast charging network delivering speeds of up to 350 kW,” said Robert Barrosa, president and CEO of Electrify America. “Beyond the impressive charging speeds, Macan customers will benefit from either the seamless Plug&Charge feature or using the My Porsche app to start charging. With Plug&Charge activated, drivers can simply plug in and start charging, streamlining their charging experience, and saving even more time.”
Porsche Macan Electric owners will have one year from the date of purchase to use the complimentary 30-minute charging sessions. To activate the charging benefit, owners can enroll during the Porsche Charging Service process. In addition, drivers can use the app or in-vehicle navigation to locate nearby charging stations, verify charger availability, and navigate to the charging stations.
“We are excited to extend our collaboration with Electrify America and offer our customers the convenience of 30-minute charging sessions for the all-new Macan,” said Timo Resch, President and CEO of Porsche Cars North America. “This charging benefit is a testament to our commitment to providing our customers with the best possible ownership experience and to supporting the growth of electric vehicles in the United States.”
Electrify America is the largest open DC fast charging network with over 970 stations and 4,350 chargers in North America. Additionally, it is the first open DC fast-charging network to offer Plug&Charge technology to capable vehicles.
