- The collaboration aims to provide Italian customers with a simple and practical charging solution to fully leverage the plug-in hybrid and 100% electric versions of Hyundai’s renewed lineup.
- Thanks to the easyWallbox, Free2move eSolutions’ plug-and-play device, Hyundai customers will be able to conveniently charge their plug-in battery vehicles at home, with the option to increase the charging power up to 7.4 kW through professional installation, further reducing waiting times.
Milano, 5 March 2025 – Hyundai has chosen Free2move eSolutions – a well-established company that develops and provides charging technologies and services related to e-mobility – to offer its customers an integrated and cutting-edge charging ecosystem, making access to electric mobility even easier. This collaboration was established to simplify home charging for the many plug-in hybrid and 100% electric Hyundai models available today, including the plug-in hybrid versions of Tucson and Santa Fe, as well as the fully electric models KONA, IONIQ 5, and IONIQ 6. It also includes INSTER, the brand-new 100% electric city SUV that debuted in Italy just a few days ago, offering an ideal solution for daily mobility. This innovative model provides a high driving range, exceeding 500 km in urban settings, and redefines modern mobility by ensuring zero emissions and maximizing cost efficiency through home charging.
To enhance the user charging experience for its vehicles, Hyundai has selected the easyWallbox, Free2move eSolutions’ charging solution that simplifies home charging even more for vehicles that can be charge with a cable (plug-in hybrid or 100% electric).
The easyWallbox is a plug-and-play solution that can be used immediately without installation. Simply plugging it into a standard Schuko power outlet in the garage allows customers to charge their vehicle at a power output of 2.3 kW. Hyundai customers can also opt for a professional installation to integrate the easyWallbox into their home electrical system, enabling it to deliver up to 7.4 kW (subject to any necessary meter upgrades), thus significantly reducing charging times. For example, with the INSTER long-range battery, the charging time from 10% to 100% is reduced to just over six hours.
Remotely controllable via a dedicated app, the easyWallbox also features Dynamic Power Management, which helps prevent unwanted power outages by managing the load intelligently.
As part of the launch phase in Italy, the INSTER comes with the easyWallbox as standard, alternatively available with a Charge myHyundai voucher for public charging, equivalent to approximately 5,000 km. For all other models in the Hyundai lineup, the easyWallbox is available for purchase at official Hyundai showrooms.
Francesco Calcara, President and CEO of Hyundai Motor Company Italy, stated: "With INSTER, Hyundai further expands its 100% electric vehicle offering, which, alongside our plug-in hybrid models, can now be used even more effectively with the easyWallbox. Thanks to our collaboration with Free2move eSolutions, we aim to make the 100% electric driving experience even more accessible and convenient, offering our customers a practical, immediate, and seamlessly integrated charging solution for their daily lives.”
Claudio Noferini, Country Manager of Free2move eSolutions, commented: "We are proud to collaborate with a prestigious brand like Hyundai and to support the launch of the new INSTER, a vehicle that marks a significant step forward in electric mobility. Hyundai’s decision to include our charging solution demonstrates confidence in our technology and strengthens our commitment to supporting all brands in their electrification journey, offering innovative and tailored solutions to meet the needs of the most demanding customers."
