世界をリードする自動車メーカー8社が設立した充電ネットワークIONNAは、全米で稼働中の充電サイトが180を超え、2026年初頭からネットワーク規模が2倍以上に拡大したと発表した。この成長は、JDパワー2026年米国電気自動車体験公共充電調査のDC急速充電部門で首位を獲得したことと同時に実現したもので、IONNAにとって初めての対象年での受賞となった。同社によると、これは米国最大の400キロワット充電ネットワークであるという。今年初めにサークルKとの戦略的提携を発表して以来、IONNAはサークルKの充電拠点40カ所を稼働させ、IONNAの運営改善後、これらの拠点での利用は2倍になった。対応パートナーアプリは19に増え、Presto、ChargeHub、EV Connectとの新たな連携が加わった。また、プラグアンドチャージはボルボのドライバー向けに新たに有効化され、トヨタとレクサスのサポートは10月に予定されている。ヒュンダイとメルセデス・ベンツは、BMWとGMに加わり、自社アプリとプラグアンドチャージを通じて充電割引を提供している。IONNAはまた、Out of Specのカイル・コナー氏とState of Chargeのトム・モローニー氏が共同キャプテンを務めるドライバー諮問委員会を設立した。同委員会の最初の優先事項は、新たに開始されたドライバーズ・ダッシュボードに関するフィードバックを集めることである。「業界は充電の規模と充電の品質をトレードオフとして扱ってきた」とIONNAのCEO、セス・カトラー氏は述べた。「当社の成長と顧客満足度首位という結果は、ドライバーが両方を期待でき、また期待すべきであることを示している。」
