Chrysler & Jeep® Introduce New Wi-Fi Capable Level 2 Charger From Mopar!

Anticipating more buyers of its plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) in North America, both the Jeep® and Chrysler brands have introduced a new, Wi-Fi-capable, Level 2 (240-volt) charging unit from Mopar.
 
Available in plug-in or hardwired versions that supply 32 amps/7.7kW (maximum) of power, the new charging units provide a full charge in just over two hours, up to six times faster than standard Level 1 (120-volt) chargers. In addition, new Wi-Fi connectivity gives customers the ability to monitor and control charging any time and anywhere via a mobile app and web portal, saving time and money.

 “Our new, factory-backed, at-home, Level 2, plug-in charging units offer a quick, seamless charging solution for Jeep 4xe and Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid owners,” said Mark Bosanac, North America vice president, Mopar service, parts & customer care. “At Mopar, we’ll continue to enhance the customer experience and expand our electric-vehicle portfolio of accessories.”

Each new charging unit is Energy Star®-certified and smart-grid optimized for a balance between availability, efficiency, and cost to help customers reduce energy costs by charging at low-rate times and participating in energy credit programs where available.

Portable, lightweight, lockable, and weatherproof for indoor/outdoor charging, each unit is universally compatible and backed by a 3-year warranty. U.S Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is $599. New charging units may be ordered with a Jeep or Chrysler-branded faceplate.
