EVgo announced that it is expanding upon its work together with GM by deploying 400 fast charging stalls at flagship destinations in major metropolitan areas across the US.

With features such as 350kW fast chargers, ample lighting, canopies, pull-through stations and security cameras, the flagship stations will address the growing demand for convenient, reliable and customer-centric charging solutions in the markets that need them most.

Most flagship stations are expected to feature up to 20 stalls, with select locations providing significantly higher stall counts, ensuring that there are critical charging hubs to best serve the growing number of EV drivers on the road.

Flagships will be deployed coast to coast, including in metropolitan areas in states such as Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, New York and Texas.

Co-branded by EVgo and GM Energy, the flagship stations will be located near a diverse set of amenities including shopping, dining, coffee shops and other services drivers can take advantage of while they charge.

The first flagship location is expected to open in 2025. The new stations will frequently leverage EVgo’s prefabrication approach to expedite construction timelines and offer modularity to ease future expansion.

In addition to the agreement to build flagship locations, EVgo and GM continue to collaborate on their ongoing metropolitan charging footprint buildout. The companies plan to build a total of 2,850 DC fast charging stalls, with funding reallocated to deliver premium charging experiences for EV drivers at flagship locations. The companies celebrated the opening of their 1,000^th fast charging stall in August 2023 and expect to install their 2,000^th stall by the end of 2024.
