AeroVironment releases next generation EV charging station

AeroVironment, a provider of electric vehicle charging and the preferred home charging solution supplier for nine global automakers, introduced TurboDX, its next generation EV charging station for commercial, workplace, utility and residential customers around the world

The station solution has been certified by Underwriters Laboratory to North American UL Standards for safety and reliability. European variants are certified to IEC standards and bear the CE Mark, and the Chinese configurations have met the CQC certification.

An OEM branded version of the TurboDX has commenced manufacturing in China and will ship to customers starting in January. TurboDX, which builds on the technology of AeroVironment's TurboCord charging system, is an open networked solution that gives customers the flexibility to choose from a variety of Open Charge Point Protocol compliant network providers based on their needs. It further enables customers to change their network provider without the added cost of switching or purchasing new hardware.

TurboDX has already started shipping for OEM, commercial, workplace and utility customers. It will be available for purchase online from Amazon, evsolutions.com and homedepot.com beginning in the first calendar quarter at a manufacturers' suggested retail price of $469 for 16 amps.
