Promoting Sustainable Mobility
Through its Recharge strategy and the alliance with Copec, the brand seeks to promote the use of plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles, offering charging solutions to achieve sustainable mobility. In this way, Volvo Cars will provide free home charging points for customers who purchase electric or plug-in hybrid models of the brand, with the professional and technical support of Copec Voltex.
The charger provided by Copec Voltex corresponds to a 7.4 kW wallbox type solution, which is managed from a mobile application that allows regulating power, schedules and obtain charging reports, delivering a comfortable, safe and intelligent experience.
Part of the Recharge strategy, promoted by Volvo Cars, at a global and local level, seeks to strengthen the public and private charging network, in order to make life easier for people who own plug-in vehicles and thus continue advancing on the road to achieving carbon neutrality by 2040.
Currently, Copec Voltex is present in Chile with the largest fast-charging network in South America, which connects 1,400 kilometers of the national territory, between the regions of Coquimbo and La Araucanía.
The company continues with the development of a public charging network that will cover the 52 communes of the Metropolitan Region. This allows Volvo Cars customers to charge their electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles without inconvenience wherever they are.
