SM City Cebu and SM Seaside City Cebu roll out e-vehicle charging stations

IN ITS commitment to create a safer and greener future for all, SM Supermalls deployed the first free in-mall charging stations in Cebu for e-vehicles (EVs), located in SM City Cebu and SM Seaside City Cebu.

From an initial rollout in 2022 of 15 EV charging stations in Metro Manila alone and one in SM City Baguio, SM Supermalls added EV charging stations from Luzon to Mindanao so shoppers and travelers can charge their e-vehicles.

Each SM mall will have one Wallbox Pulsar Plus AC charger with charging power of up to 7.4kW and a 5 meter integrated charging cable. It is compatible with all Type 2 electric cars including Audi e-tron, BMW i3, Hyundai Ioniq, Jaguar, Kia, Range Rover, Renault Zoe, Mercedes Benz EQC, Mini Countryman, Porsche Taycan, Tesla, Volkswagen, Volvo XC T8, as well as Japanese cars Nissan Leaf and Mitsubishi Outlander, and China cars such as BYD, Weltmeister, and Chery.

The charging stations are open daily during mall hours. And the good news is, charging your e-vehicle at SM is FREE!

The EV charging station is located at the third floor of SM City Cebu’s multi-level parking structure, and at the second floor Mountain Wing parking area, near ramp three, of SM Seaside City Cebu.

SM Supermalls is the first mall chain to establish in-mall e-Vehicle charging sites in the Philippines, with multiple installed chargers in 27 malls nationwide. Since 2022, SM Supermalls has made possible traveling sustainably and worry-free.

This initiative also supports The SM Green Movement, which enables more Filipinos to make sustainable lifestyle choices including having e-vehicles. This promotes the use of a more sustainable and cleaner alternative form of transportation that is supported, encouraged, and made even more accessible by the government. These charging stations are a result of SM Supermalls’ partnership with the Department of Energy, the Department of Transportation, and the Department of Trade and Industry to accelerate the government’s sustainability initiatives.
