## **INDIANAPOLIS, March 8, 2022**

Charge Ford Pro is aiming to equally create a smooth transition for commercial customers
into an electric [future](https://greenlivingguy.com/2023/08/2023-ford-escape-plug-in-hybrid-torque-efficiency-range/).
That’s due to providing a one-stop-shop for fleet operations. Moreover and investing
in key areas of the business. Therefore, the latest is the launch of six new home
and depot chargers. Then also to its end-to-end portfolio of charging solutions.

In a market crowded with fragmented and consumer-grade products. So customers are
demanding complete solutions. All designed to meet the needs of commercial fleet
operations. Moreover, [Ford Pro](https://greenlivingguy.com/2021/12/ford-pro-charging-launches-to-help-businesses-of-all-sizes-overcome-the-hurdle-to-seamless-electrification/)
is pulling the wraps off a wide range of charging hardware. Again, that’s from [home chargers to large-scale depot](https://greenlivingguy.com/2019/01/cfl-recycling-at-home-depot-a-simple-and-free-program/)
charging systems. I mean all backed with integrated installation. Also the software,
service, and moreover Ford Pro^(™)FinSimple^(™) financing. That’s again from America’s
leader* in commercial trucks and vans.

In addition, [Ford Pro Charging** hardware launches](https://greenlivingguy.com/2020/04/rivian-announces-500-million-investment-from-ford-partnership-to-deliver-all-new-ford-battery-electric-vehicle/)
alongside the all-new 2022 Ford E-Transit™ shipping to dealers now. In addition,
to my other favorite. I mean all-new 2022 Ford F-150^(®) Lightning^(™) Pro is slated
to start arriving this spring. Thereby providing compatibility for customers. Especially
those who may operate other [electric vehicle makes with secure](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/09/land-rover-based-vehicles-for-security-and-defense-projects-are-going-electric/)
OEM data.

## **Making electric vehicle adoption easier**

According to a recent survey conducted by PSB^(†)

. For the shift to electrification is causing great anxiety among fleet managers.
That’s with nearly half finding the setup of charging infrastructure to be a significant
challenge for their companies. Furthermore, a nearly equal number concerned about
finding optimal charging solutions.

To address these concerns, Ford Pro helps customers implement complete [electric vehicle charging](https://greenlivingguy.com/2025/08/bentley-exp-15-ev-concept-debuts-at-monterey-car-week/).
That’s from start to finish. For it’s a turnkey solution. Thereby offering a full-
service team of experts with decades of experience. That’s also in commercial project
development and installations. Moreover, [Ford Pro](https://greenlivingguy.com/2015/02/ford-reimagining-parking-solutions/)

designed to manage their electric fleet charging requirements.

Once the charge systems are up and running, Ford Pro will continue to support commercial

Ford working to make fast chargers more widely available is key. The lack of this
availability among other automakers, thus far, has limited my practical EV choices
to Tesla. If Ford and others can develop a similar or larger fast charger network,
it really enhances people’s choices and access to clean energy based transport.
