Toyota Partners With Enel X Way to Offer EV Charging Technology & Solutions in Italy

Toyota Motor Italia and Enel X Way have entered into a partnership to supply advanced solutions and technologies for charging electric cars at home. The new partnership means that anyone driving an electric or plug-in hybrid Toyota or Lexus will be able to use Enel X Way’s advanced solutions and technologies to charge their vehicle.

This includes the WayBox Procellular, the charging solution developed by Enel X Way, that's been added to the range of accessories for electric and plug-in hybrid Toyota and Lexus vehicles.

It's a home charging station that can be connected to the network via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Sim Card.

The aim of the partnership is to advance the development of electrified mobility in Italy by providing services that are as easy and convenient as possible.

Enel X Way is the Enel Group’s company fully dedicated to electric mobility.

Federico Caleno, CEO of Enel X Way Italia, says: “The agreement with Toyota proves just how important it is to build synergies with leading automotive manufacturers in order to provide customers with high-tech charging solutions that are easy to use for everyday commuting. This partnership allows us to meet the growing demand for personal home charging systems, which are a key part of our core business along with our daily commitment to make Italy’s public charging network, which currently comprises 17,000 Enel X Way charging points, even more widespread and efficient.”

“We are extremely pleased to have partnered with Enel X Way, which will join us on our journey towards increasingly sustainable mobility,” adds Luigi Ksawery Luca, CEO at Toyota Motor Italia. “In order to achieve the goals set by the EU, it is becoming imperative for all key stakeholders to cooperate, not only institutions, but also all operators in the mobility and energy sector, and even individual citizens. In this respect, by working together with Enel X Way, we will be able to provide our customers with comprehensive solutions that can be used with peace of mind, which will therefore help to accelerate the transition to electric mobility.”

Enel X Way operates in 16 countries and manages nearly 430,000 charging points, both directly through joint ventures such as Ewiva in Italy and through roaming agreements in place around the world.
