What in the blue oval is this? Ford supercharger spotted?

[AlpaChino]

I saw this image on Ford.com tonight and the charging station pictured caught my eye. Is this confirmed in any way as real?

In all of the promos so far I haven't seen this before, but it may just be some artsy BS by marketing. Have you seen this before?

Ford's "Pro" division for companies offers DCFC's. I think they announced that this or last week.

Here is the press release:

Ford loves a good press release lol - I doubt we'll ever see that thing out in the wild. Looks slick as hell though.

Would be cool if every dealership had a few of these for Mach-E and Lightning owners.

Yeah, it’s for fleet customers

IIRC they were showing something like that at some of the car shows early in 2020; might have even been the LA show where they revealed the Mach E

They exist and are being installed:

They may look like a supercharger, but super they are not. They are only level 2.

That’s super lame. I guess while my car slow charges I can see what the Bronco markups are that week ?

The Ford Pro series does offer a DCFC version. The ones pictured above do not look like any in the Pro series press release - my guess is that these will be the L2s installed at dealers going forward. The second picture in this thread looks like a dealer location.

Ya these were announced last year for dealers

The first marketing slick that I saw with a pic of that model of station or a similar one was over a year ago. Part of the Pro line for fleets. ??
