An EV-era dealership needs charging as infrastructure: customers expect it, inventory depends on it, service bays use it and demos leave on it. This guide covers the dealership's charging equipment layers — independent of any OEM program.

THE FOUR CHARGING JOBS

Each zone has its own duty cycle.

Customer charging — convenient visitor positions at the front line
Inventory charging — managed charging that keeps EV stock delivery-ready
Service-bay charging — diagnostics, handbacks and customer care
Demo vehicles — leaving charged, every time

HARDWARE & MANAGEMENT

Level 2 is the backbone; management makes it work.

Commercial Level 2 systems across lot, drive and bays
DC fast charging where customer traffic justifies it
Networked access hardware managing which vehicles charge and when
Load management across lot and service positions
