CarCharging's services utilize EV charging stations, known as Level II, which provide 240 volts with 32 amps of power to quickly refuel an electric vehicle's battery. EV drivers can easily initiate use and payment at any intelligent CarCharging station via a small RFID card. The CarCharging RFID card, evCharge card, also allows drivers to use charging locations on the ChargePoint® Network, the largest national online network connecting EV drivers to EV charging stations. CarCharging stations also accept direct payment via credit card.

Drivers can obtain an evCharge card at the Miami International Auto Show or request one online at http://www.CarCharging.com/. Drivers can also pinpoint EV charging station locations using the CarCharging map located on the CarCharging website. The ChargePoint® mobile application for the iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry phones also provides real-time charging station location information with turn-by-turn directions. Drivers will soon be able to reserve a time slot, guaranteeing access to EV charging stations to recharge their electric vehicle. 

CarCharging's CEO, Michael D. Farkas, will provide a demonstration of the EV charging process on the show's press day on Friday, November 9, 2012 at 2:15pm in the ECO Experience area of the show at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
