DURHAM, N.C., May 1, 2025 -- We've been heads down chipping away at our 2025 roadmap, but we're pressing pause for a moment to share the highlights in a Rechargery Report.
Growing, multiplying, and opening roads…
30,000 charging bays by the end of 2030 is a lofty goal we keep on permanent lock. That's the talk, here's the walk:
- Open now: 6 new Rechargeries have gone live to the public in April. Doubling our total network size in sites to 12 and bays to 120. Marking our first set of batch openings this year, but certainly not the last.
- In-Construction now: 15 additional Rechargeries have "fences-up" and are in active construction across the U.S., bringing the total of open and in-construction sites to 27 dots on the map across 14 states.
- Open-Road Pipeline: Over 200 contracted sites across the US, double the 100 announced earlier this year, brings us to over 2,000 charging bays inked and moving along the pipeline.
Our Money where our Mouth is…
We took a page out of our founding automakers playbook: Proudly announcing Friends & Family pricing. For a limited time, you can experience discounted charging prices, open to everyone, at all IONNA stations, no subscriptions or additional fees required. To make it even easier while you rack-up these savings, our list of Plug & Charge enabled OEMs is growing to five, with GM, Hyundai, and Kia coming online this quarter.
We are also happy to share that our founding automakers have begun expanding free charging credits to the IONNA Network. If you chose the public charging package with the purchase of certain EVs, these charging credits can now be used at IONNA.
- BMW: All IONNA locations and charge points are fully digitally integrated and accessible through the My BMW App and the in-vehicle navigation system. Plug & Charge already live today. Special offers applicable to IONNA in the future.
- General Motors: GM EV drivers can easily find and access IONNA charging stations directly through their GM MyBrand apps, with full integration for a seamless experience. Starting in Q2, customers will begin to enjoy the Plug & Charge experience at IONNA sites — automatically initiating charging and payment with no extra steps.
- Honda: Special offers applicable to IONNA and Plug & Charge in the future.
- Hyundai: 2025 IONIQ 5, IONIQ 5 N, IONIQ 6 and 2025 Genesis drivers who choose the Charging Credit offer receive up to $500 of charging credit through the ChargePoint app, with credits usable at IONNA stations. Plug & Charge is rolling out soon.
- Mercedes-Benz: Model Year 2025 EV owners have the option to add a $1,000 public charging voucher to their MB.CHARGE PUBLIC account and apply it to charging sessions on the IONNA network. Plug & Charge live today!
- Kia: Kia America's recently launched Kia Charge Pass program allows "find, charge & pay" capability within the Kia Access App. This includes all IONNA locations, future IONNA special offers and Plug & Charge coming soon.
- Stellantis: Certain model year drivers of the Jeep Wagoneer S, Dodge Charger Daytona and Fiat 500e who chose the Free2move Charge Go Package can apply the $600 of public charging credits at all IONNA Rechargeries. Plug & Charge coming soon.
- Toyota: Discounts coming soon.
Premiering now, everywhere…
North Carolina, Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kansas, Arizona, and Missouri all have open rechargeries with many more coming later this year as we build our pan-US network.
All these Rechargeries feature IONNA canopies either at opening or coming soon, 24/7 charging at 400kW of power, access to restrooms, food & beverage choices, other car care and travel comforts, and don't forget our first IONNA Rechargery Market at Garner, NC!
After credits: California Dreamin'…
Dot matrix style, IONNA will print blue and orange Rechargeries across California in 2025, starting with the Vista, CA Rechargery Relay! Stay tuned and we will reveal more throughout the year, including a future Beacon for the Golden State.
