- Ford (NYSE:F) announces a new public charging network in North America that includes more than 12K places for drivers to charge, including fast charging, and more than 35K charge plugs total.
- The automaker says the large network addresses a big concern for those switching to all-electric cars.
- Ford's all-electric vehicles, including the Mustang-inspired SUV arriving next year, will come standard with a Ford Mobile Charger that can charge regardless of outlet power (120- and 240-volt outlets). Drivers with longer commutes or who want greater peace of mind, a Ford Connected Charge Station can fully power a vehicle overnight while they sleep with the Ford Connected Charge Station. Also, drivers can charge their battery from 10% to 80% in 45 minutes through an Electrify America DC fast charger.
- Ford is collaborating with Amazon in the U.S. for installation services – from 240V outlets to the Ford Connected Charge Station.
- Shares of Ford are up +0.66% premarket to $9.10.
