Webasto Charging Systems, Inc. expands production of the Webasto Go Mobile EV Charger to end-consumer markets for both cars and fleet truck owners.
The mobile charger—developed, tested, and produced by Webasto—is a globally-certified product now available in the US and Canada for EV owners of cars and truck fleets to purchase at major retail stores or directly on the Webasto EV Solutions website. Further roll-outs are planned for the rest of the world.
Webasto is perhaps best known for its in-house developed roof, heating, and cooling systems for various types of vehicles, its batteries and charging solutions for hybrid and electric vehicles, and services related to thermal management and electromobility.
“I am excited to now offer the same product performance and high quality to our end-consumers as we have done for our automotive customers,” said Greg White, the Senior Director of Sales for Webasto Charging Systems Aftermarket. “The Webasto Go is a great addition to our wall boxes and overall EV product portfolio, and we can’t wait to launch the same easy-to-use and safe mobile chargers in Germany, Europe, and other regions soon.”

The Webasto Go utilizes plug-specific electrical current limitations, automatic adapter detection, and built-in temperature sensing. The charger has an IP67 rating, which means it can be submerged in up to three feet of water, allowing users to safely charge indoors or outdoors, no matter the weather conditions.
In the US, each Webasto Go set includes a NEMA 14-50 grid plug for Level 2 charging and a 120V grid plug for Level 1 charging. It also features a durable 20-foot cable, which makes charging at home, on the road, or within the fleet truck service bay convenient.
A European version will provide the same high quality and safety features and will be delivered with region-specific grid plugs.
