Toyota to Invest in EV Charging Network Expansion

4 months ago 12

Toyota

announced an

investment

in

Ionna

on Wednesday, joining seven other automakers to support the implementation of its EV charging network across

North America

. This investment grants Toyota and Lexus customers access to Ionna's public network of

DC fast chargers

, which will start rolling out later this year.
Toyota, which currently offers the Toyota bZ4X and Lexus RZ

battery EVs

in the U.S.

and Canada, aims to have 30 battery EV models globally and produce up to 3.5 million annually by 2030. Ionna, based in Durham, North Carolina, plans to install at least 30,000 charge ports in North America by 2030, featuring both

CCS

and

NACS

connectors to accommodate all battery EV drivers.
Most electric vehicles use either the Combined Charging System (CCS) or the North American Charging Standard (NACS) for public fast charging. The

White House

supports the auto industry's efforts to standardize Tesla's NACS for all EVs in the U.S. to boost sales and combat climate change. Automakers supporting Ionna include BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, and Stellantis.
