SAN DIEGO — FLO, a North American electric vehicle (EV) charging network operator and a smart charging solutions provider, introduced FLO Ultra, a charger engineered to maximize energy delivery with future-proof performance and a reportedly smart design that enables the ultimate EV charging experience.

“EV demand and sales are topping all industry expectations and are now forecasted to exceed more than 45% of U.S. light duty vehicle sales by 2030,” said Nathan Yang, FLO Chief Product Officer. “As new EV drivers hit the road, they will be looking for fast charging that is safe, accessible, convenient, intuitive and reliable. This is why we designed FLO Ultra – to provide the ultimate EV charging experience.”

The FLO Ultra charger features two charging ports in one aluminum enclosure. It will charge most EVs to 80% in 15 minutes with up to 320 kW* available using dynamic power sharing and up to 500 kW* with multiple electric vehicle charging stations connected together.

“FLO Ultra’s flexible and modular design accommodates charging on one or on both sides and parallel or pull-in parking for charging,” said Yang.

The new charger also features a patent-pending, motorized cable management system. This system keeps cables off the ground while the extended reach allows for charging regardless of vehicle port placement.

FLO says their enclosure is made of durable, recyclable aluminum designed to withstand extreme weather conditions. The EV fast charger is reportedly easily serviceable with large front and back doors and modular components for quick replacement.
