Whether you drive a Chevy Bolt or an electric semi-truck, Nxu One adapts to your vehicle’s charging capacity, ensuring you get the fastest charge possible.
Nxu’s Vision for EV Charging
Mark Hanchett, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Nxu, emphasizes the importance of making electric mobility more accessible. He highlights the challenges that subpar charging experiences and scattered charging locations pose to consumers’ adoption of electric vehicles. Nxu is determined to simplify the charging process, aiming to make it as effortless as refueling a conventional car.
Getting Started with Nxu
To access Nxu’s charging stations, users need to create a Nxu One Charging profile, providing payment information for convenience. Nxu’s friendly staff was available on-site from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. during the opening weekend to assist customers and address any practical or technical inquiries regarding the Nxu One Charging System.
Expanding Accessibility and Convenience
Nxu has recently announced plans to secure a permanent charging location in Quartzsite, Arizona, a strategically vital location between Phoenix and Los Angeles. This move aims to ensure the reliability and future-proofing of high-demand highway routes, offering consistent energy storage and megawatt+ charging capabilities.

Nxu seeks to alleviate this anxiety by creating consistent, reliable, and convenient charging destinations powered by the Nxu One Megawatt+ Charging System. From software to hardware and charging locations, Nxu’s ecosystem aims to eliminate unreliable service contractors and streamline the overall customer experience.
