Stellantis Offers New Charging Packages for BEV Buyers

Stellantis is making a significant push to encourage customers to transition to battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) by offering two new purchase packages through its Free2move Charge program. These packages are designed to simplify the charging process and make the switch to electrification more appealing.

Two Charging Options – 

With the purchase of a new Stellantis BEV, customers can choose between two options:

• Free2move Charge Home Package: This option includes a Level 2 at-home charging station, valued at approximately $600. The charging unit allows owners to charge their vehicles conveniently at home. The Free2move Charge app also helps owners identify the best times to charge, avoiding peak electricity rates.
• Free2move Charge Go Package: For those who prefer charging credits, this option provides $600 worth of credits to be used at public charging stations across the country. The Free2move Charge app makes it easy to find, activate, and pay for charging at over 75,000 charging ports in the U.S., including networks like ChargePoint, Shell Recharge, and EVgo.

Launch of Free2move Charge Website and App – 

To support these new BEVs, Stellantis has launched the Free2move Charge website and app. The app, available on Apple and Google app stores, guides customers through the entire process, from purchase to charging. It helps users locate charging stations, track charging history, and manage their charging credits.

New BEV Models Coming to the Market – 

Stellantis is introducing several new BEV models to the U.S. market this year, including the all-new 2024 Fiat 500e, 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona, 2025 Jeep® Wagoneer S, 2025 Jeep Recon, and 2025 Ram 1500 REV. Customers can now reserve the 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S and order the 2024 Fiat 500e.

The Stellantis Push For BEVs – 

Carlos Zarlenga, COO of Stellantis, emphasized the importance of making the charging process as simple and accessible as possible. “With our fully electric vehicles now arriving in the U.S. market, our customers will quickly realize that our BEVs carry the same brand DNA they love, but with added benefits of electrification and advanced technology,” he said.

Mathilde Lheureux, Head of Stellantis’ Energy and Charge Business Unit, added, “We want to ensure that our customers easily understand the charging options available to them before or upon purchase. With the Free2move Charge packages, we aim to make the transition to electric vehicles seamless and convenient.”

Installation and Setup – 

For those opting for the Free2move Charge Home Package, installation is straightforward. Customers can get a free estimate from Qmerit.com by answering a few questions and uploading photos of their home setup. Once the estimate is approved, an appointment can be scheduled for installation.

Future Expansion – 

Stellantis plans to expand its charging infrastructure through a joint venture with IONNA, aiming to deploy at least 30,000 in-network chargers in the U.S. starting in 2024, with further expansion into Canada.
