FLO and Nissan Canada Announce New Initiatives to Boost EV Adoption

 

 

QUEBEC CITY, QC — June 7th, 2023 – FLO®, a leading North American electric vehicle (EV) charging company and a smart charging solutions provider, and Nissan Canada are making EV charging more convenient with two initiatives — complimentary FLO charging credits and greater access to FLO’s residential EV chargers across Canada for new car buyers.

The programs will give $150 worth of charging credits to Nissan Canada customers who purchase or lease a new Nissan EV along with the Nissan EV Care protection package. Additionally, Canadian drivers can now purchase FLO Home chargers at Nissan dealerships nationwide.

“With more EVs on North America’s roads than ever before, FLO provides drivers with accessible, safe, and reliable EV chargers – at home or on the go. We welcome new Nissan drivers to the FLO network, which proudly boasts a 98% network uptime,” said Louis Tremblay, FLO President and CEO. “These new initiatives with Nissan are only the beginning of our joint commitment to accelerating EV adoption in North America, and we look forward to growing this relationship.”

FLO provides EV drivers with a seamless network of easy-to-use EV charging stations and a complete portfolio of dependable charging solutions. Nissan drivers will have access to the FLO EV Charging Network, providing access to charge their EV at FLO Level 2 & DC fast chargers located coast-to-coast across Canada and the U.S.

“As we broaden our electric vehicles offering, we are excited to collaborate with FLO to bring charging even closer to our customers,” said Ben Lee, President of Nissan Canada Extended Services Inc. (NCESI). “We’re thrilled to provide $150 in charging credits to new Nissan EV drivers with their Nissan EV Care protection package. Additionally, Nissan customers will be able to purchase the FLO Home charger directly from Nissan Canada dealerships.”

Nissan Canada has selected the FLO Home charger as the home charging unit offered at its dealerships. Engineered to withstand extreme weather conditions, the 100% aluminum, waterproof, impact and corrosion-resistant enclosure is built to last. The ENERGY STAR certified home charger matches most maximum EV power acceptance rates to charge most vehicles in 6-8 hours, allowing drivers to power up overnight. The X5 model offers sophisticated smart charging, enabling the customer to schedule specific charging times, limit power during peak periods, track usage, and configure settings from their iOS or Android device.
