Ford chooses Allego for retailer EV chargers
02 April 2024
Ford has partnered with EV charging network Allego to roll out ultra-fast chargers for customers and public at its European retailers, including the UK. The first chargers will be installed starting Q1 2025 and be in place over the next three to four years.
Allego is investing in the charging stations, so will receive the revenue from them – but members of the Ford BlueOval charging service will receive preferential rates. They will charge at speeds of up to 400kW.
“By opening them up to the public, they will bring owners of other EV brands into contact with Ford products at retailers,” said Ford Model e head of charging Joerg Hofmeister. “It’s a great opportunity to showcase our products.”
Allego CEO Mathieu Bonnet added that “by enabling any EV driver to charge at these Ford dealerships, we contribute to better EV penetration”.
