EVgo, Inc. announced that more than 50 EV models are eligible for its seamless Autocharge+ feature. Once enrolled, Autocharge+ showcases a best-in-class customer experience for EV drivers by eliminating the need to open an app, swipe a credit card, or tap an EVgo program (RFID) card to initiate a fast charging session on the EVgo network. Since its launch in September 2022, Autocharge+ has steadily grown across the EVgo network ?

and in 2023 alone, the percentage of charging sessions initiated using Autocharge+ nearly doubled, reaching approximately 17% of all charging sessions initiated in the fourth quarter. Most EVs with CCS connectors support this feature as well as Tesla models that are compatible with the CCS Combo 1 Adapter. Additionally, EVgo plans to support Autocharge+ through its integrated NACS connectors once implemented across the network.

Autocharge+ contributes to EVgo?s ?One & Done? success rate, a measure of a driver?s ability to successfully initiate a charging session on their first attempt, by combining payment and session initiation methods into one simple step: plugging in. In addition to the testing and diagnostic work performed at the EVgo Innovation Lab and other efforts included in EVgo?s ReNew program, Autocharge+ contributed to the Company?s achievements in increasing the One & Done success rate by six percentage points over the course of 2023.
