Ford officially announced an agreement with Electrify America to provide access to ultra-fast charging for its upcoming next-generation BEVs from 2020.

As the all-new, all-electric Mustang-inspired SUV will be capable of charging at up to around 150 kW, the 150-350 kW CCS Combo chargers at Electrify America stations will come in really handy for long-distance travel. At 150 kW, range will be replenished by up to 47 miles in 10 minutes

"Customers will be able to manage their charging plan through features of the company’s FordPass app, as well as through their vehicle’s touch screen, that will be supported by a comprehensive data feed from Electrify America. The FordPass app will provide real time location and charger status data to Ford EV drivers for Electrify America’s network of ultra-fast EV public chargers across highway and metro charging stations planned in 45 states and the District of Columbia."

Giovanni Palazzo, president and CEO of Electrify America said:

“Electrify America is proud to provide Ford customers with access to our nationwide network of ultra-fast public chargers. We are committed to advancing the adoption of electric vehicles, and value forward-thinking collaborations with automakers like Ford, that share a similar vision.”
