Evatran, the developer of plugless power, announced the
launch of its online Plugless Power product reservation system. The company
also offering a $150 rebate card, which can be used to cover up to
six months of electricity to recharge customers’ vehicles.
The incentive is open to the first 500 Nissan Leaf or
Chevrolet Volt reservations, and joining the Preferred Customer Group by
reserving a system requires no upfront financial commitment.
The Plugless Power system allows
a user to avoid the repetitive plug in and unplug process traditionally
required by electric vehicle (EV) ownership. User can recharge the car at their
regular parking space or garage. The wireless system automatically begins
charging based on the vehicle’s requirements, which are communicated to the
charging station over a wireless interface that mimics the corded SAE J1772
standard.
To use the system, the user must have his EV equipped
with a small vehicle adapter that is mounted on the undercarriage of the car
and is wired directly into the vehicle’s existing on-board battery charger.
No financial commitment is required for the reservation
of a system, and the incentive will continue until the Preferred Customer Group
reaches 500 Nissan Leaf or Chevy Volt owners.
“With our online product reservation system opened,
we can support our customers’ electric vehicle purchases by allowing them to
reserve a convenient recharging system online,” said Rebecca Hough,
COO of Evatran.
Reservations for the wireless charging system will be
filled starting in third quarter 2012 for Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt
models.
