Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) has made significant progress in promoting the electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem by expanding its Ultra-Fast Public EV Charging Network.
Ultra-Fast Charging Stations
Hyundai has successfully established 11 Ultra-Fast charging stations in key cities and highways across India.This achievement positions Hyundai as – the only original equipment manufacturer (OEM) in India to develop such an extensive charging infrastructure. The strategic placement of these new stations in six cities – Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Gurugram, and Bangalore – as well as five major highways – Delhi-Chandigarh, Delhi-Jaipur, Hyderabad-Vijayawada, Mumbai-Surat, and Mumbai-Nashik – ensures convenient access for EV owners.Benefits and Impact
While these charging stations are available in 6 key cities and 5 highway locations, they are operational 24/7 for both Hyundai and non-Hyundai customers. The stations have dedicated staff and offer customer amenities like coffee shops and restaurants.The ultra-fast DC chargers provide quick charging experiences, with the Hyundai IONIQ 5 able to charge from 10% to 80% in just 21 minutes. Customers can book the charging sessions through Hyundai’s app, myHyundai. They are priced attractively at Rs 18 per unit for a 30 kW charger, Rs 21 per unit for a 60 kW charger, and Rs 24 per unit for a 150 kW charger.Expansion and Future Plans
In addition to the ultra-fast chargers, Hyundai has mapped over 2,900 charging points in the myHyundai app for customer convenience. This app is available to both Hyundai and non-Hyundai EV users. Hyundai intends to broaden its network to at least 10- high-speed charging stations by 2024. They also aim to install 100 charging stations by 2027 as part of an agreement with the Government of Tamil Nadu in the recent Global Investor Meet 2024.LEADERBOARD
