The Basics

Charging for electric vehicles is available at ChargePoint charging stations across Walt Disney World property. Guests can use a credit card or a pre-ordered ChargePoint card—available at chargepoint.com – to charge their vehicle for $0.35 per kilowatt hour, with a minimum service amount of $1.50. The vehicle can be left unattended at the charging station, as charging will stop once the vehicle’s battery is fully charged. Once complete, an automatic “ping” will be sent to the vehicle’s owners to alert them when their car is ready. Stations are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
