Vestel launches low-cost DC electric vehicle charging solution

Vestel is set to shake up the UK commercial EV Charging market with a value-driven urban fast charging station, the EVC06.

VESTEL UK, October 24th 2023 -

Vestel’s ongoing campaign to lead the European electric transport revolution

has been further bolstered by the launch of its third Vestel-branded EV charger

in 2023. The EVC06 is a richly featured yet low-cost, commercial urban fast DC

charging station offering high-speed, multiple output charging at up to 60kW.

The EVC06 tops out the 2023 Vestel range with a high-value,

fully featured DC charging station that leverages Vestel’s EVC expertise,

legendary reliability, and exceptional economies of scale from its 1.3m square

metre manufacturing facility. The result is a robust, easy-to-use commercial

fast charger that delivers outstanding value, reducing the cost of equipping

commercial car parks, retail premises and public spaces with EV charging

facilities.

The Turkish manufacturing giant has been a European powerhouse

behind EV charging design and manufacture since 2018, creating bespoke products

for some of the biggest name brands in energy, fuel and automotive. This year

has seen Vestel enter the EV charger market with a range of aggressively priced

products covering every charging sector, from small residential to the latest

DC fast chargers for infrastructure and large commercial enterprises.

Matthew Lang, Managing Director of Vestel UK says: “Alongside

the residential and light commercial EVC04 charger and the small-business

focused EVC10 dual-output model, the EVC06 is a powerful fast charger designed

to offer fast charging in commercial premises and public spaces.”

The EVC06 is a 60kW DC fast charger with 22KW AC output for

AC-only vehicles, offering dual split load charging as standard or optionally

with a third output. Fully featured with local and remote load management, a

10.4” touchscreen interface, RFID, an optional credit card module and a slick

fully guided user interface, the EVC06 is the perfect solution for repowering

existing AC locations for the latest fast-charging electric vehicles. The unit

is ISO15118 vehicle-to-grid communications compliant for class-leading

accessibility and security without the need for RFID or a credit card if

required.

“The 2023 Vestel charger line-up is already shaking up UK EV

charging market,” adds Matthew. “We now have a range of products that offer

full UK regulation compliance, our enviable reputation for engineering and

reliability, and unrivalled value thanks to our in-house design and large-scale

manufacturing facility. For customers across Europe, we carry stock or build to

order in Europe, ensuring the shortest lead times for even the largest EVC

installation projects.”

The Vestel factory in Manisa, Turkey is fully compliant with, or

exceeds, strict European sustainability and environmental regulations. The

reduced distance from Turkey to anywhere in Europe also significantly reduces

the transportation carbon footprint of every Vestel charger compared to

products made in Asia and then shipped to Europe. The factory can produce over

700,000 EV chargers per year and continues to supply OEM as well as the new

Vestel brand products.
