The versatility in the design of the Luxman OCPP1.6 EV charger makes it an industry-standard protocol that can therefore support most of the EV models in the market. With Open Charge Point Protocol 1.6, this charging station will be backward compatible with more than 90% of the existing electric vehicles on the market, including but not limited to Tesla Model 3s, Nissan Leafs, BMW i3s, and newer entries like Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6.
The charger also comes equipped with a Type 2 connector for AC charging, while on DC charging, it comes with CCS2 or CHAdeMO, to cater to a wide range of global EV standards, such as CCS2 used everywhere in Europe, and CHAdeMO still popular in Japan. More than 60% of the world’s EVs use one of these two types of connectors, according to the report by BloombergNEF, which makes this versatility one of the most desirable features of Luxman for businesses and public installations.
Standards create accessibility and growth,” said a senior engineer at the Electric Vehicle Charging Association, who pointed out that adherence to protocols like OCPP means compatibility across diverse EV fleets. This functionality simplifies life for charging network operators serving stations to vehicles from different manufacturers.
Luxman increases its compatibility further with its dynamic load management system, where power delivery is adjusted in accordance with vehicle requirements; thus, efficient charging will be ensured, irrespective of battery size or capacity. Whereas a Tesla Model Y may require 250 kW DC charging at peak, for example, a Nissan Leaf may require only 50 kW. The chargers from Luxman adapt to these needs, maximizing energy use and minimizing costs.
In a France commercial parking operator, the success of EVs with the support of Luxman chargers included as high as 98% of them using their facilities during the year 2023, both passenger cars and electric delivery vans alike, such as Mercedes-Benz eSprinter and Ford E-Transit. This charger also can serve each type because its output ranges from 22 kW up to 50 kW.
Retailers and businesses benefit from increased footfall as a wide range of EV owners are attracted to their locations on the installation of Luxman chargers. A shopping center in Canada saw a 15% increase in customer visits after the installation of Luxman chargers since they reliably charge all models of EVs.
While the list of compatibility for the charger is long, a few of those very niche EVs use proprietary systems that may require adapters. Tesla cars, while native to CCS2 in Europe, may require the Tesla CCS Combo 1 adapter in places like North America. For such areas of concern, Luxman tries to pacify the queries through proper documentation and customer support.
This wide support means the Luxman commercial ocpp1.6 EV charger will be ideal for businesses, public charging networks, and fleet operators looking to ensure access for virtually all EV drivers. Consequently, universal protocol, flexible power output, and already acknowledged reliability position Luxman as a leader in EV charging solutions.
