As many people move toward more environmentally friendly modes of transportation, the technology requires advancement for home use, as well. Charging an electric vehicle at home typically relies on a standard 120 volt outlet, or a Level 1 charger. Charging technology at home just got a major upgrade from Mopar.
Created for the Jeep Wrangler 4Xe, the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4Xe, and the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid models, this Level 2 charging system revolutionizes the process of powering up your hybrid/electric vehicle. It uses a 240-volt system that promises to charge your vehicle up to six times faster than the traditional at-home charger.
With previous versions of at-home chargers, a full charge for your vehicle could take up to twelve hours. When it comes to your busy schedule, possible emergencies, or just plain convenience, waiting a half day for your vehicle to charge is a thing of the past.
This exciting new charger is available for $599 from the Mopar eStore in both plug-in or hardwired versions. For added convenience, Mopar has joined forces with installation company Qmerit. Their installers are insured and have been meticulously screened, thus ensuring the safety of your home is not a concern.
Whether you intend to install the charger indoors or out, you will have ultimate peace of mind, as the charging station is completely weatherproof. Covered by a 3-year manufacturer’s warranty and easily lockable, your unit is guaranteed to be safe.
Another key feature of this EnergyStar certified at-home charging system is its Wi-Fi capability. By using an app on your mobile device, you are able to monitor charging progress or stop charging from anywhere, thus allowing better planning for charging your electric vehicle.
At Superior CDJR, we can assist you in getting behind the wheel of one of these hybrid/electric vehicles and direct you to the proper channels to purchase your very own at-home charger.
