We welcome new Nissan drivers to the FLO network, which proudly boasts a 98% network uptime,” said Louis Tremblay, FLO President and CEO.These new initiatives with Nissan are only the beginning of our joint commitment to accelerating EV adoption in North America, and we look forward to growing this relationship.”

“As we broaden our electric vehicles offering, we are excited to collaborate with FLO to bring charging even closer to our customers,” said Ben Lee, President of NCESI. “We’re thrilled to provide $150 in charging credits to new Nissan EV drivers with their Nissan EV Care protection package. Additionally, Nissan customers will be able to purchase the FLO Home charger directly from Nissan Canada dealerships.”

Nissan Canada has selected the FLO Home charger as the home charging unit offered at its dealerships. Engineered to withstand extreme weather conditions, the 100% aluminum, waterproof, impact and corrosion-resistant enclosure is built to last. The ENERGY STAR certified home charger matches most maximum EV power acceptance rates to charge most vehicles in 6-8 hours, allowing drivers to power up overnight. The X5 model offers sophisticated smart charging, enabling the customer to schedule specific charging times, limit power during peak periods, track usage, and configure settings from their iOS or Android device.
