Nissan expands EV charging network
FLO, Canada’s largest electric vehicle (EV) charging network, has announced a three-year collaboration agreement with Nissan Canada to encourage and facilitate EV adoption throughout the country, as the automaker launches the 2018 edition of its signature vehicle, the Nissan Leaf.
During the term of this agreement, Nissan Canada is recommending the FLO Home charging station and the FLO Network as the prime charging solutions for owners of the pure-electric Nissan Leaf.
This agreement follows a successful one-year pilot project involving both parties.
New Nissan Leaf buyers will be able to purchase the FLO Home charging station directly from participating Nissan dealerships across Canada.
In addition, FLO will be offering new LEAF owners a free membership card to access its countrywide charging network.
The FLO Home charging station is made in Canada and designed to thrive in the harshest weather conditions. The station is available in connected (X5 model) and unconnected (G5 model) versions.
A network connection allows users to configure smart energy management features and view usage data from a secure online portal.
With their FLO Network card, LEAF owners will also be able to rely on Canada’s largest EV charging network to power up their car when travelling.
Membership in the FLO network provides drivers with access to thousands of public charging stations from coast to coast, including those of FLO’s partner networks, the Electric Circuit (Quebec) and the eCharge Network (New Brunswick).
