REDMOND – November 02, 2026 -- 1stMILE, a financial experience platform for the automotive aftermarket, has launched 1stMILE EV Charging, a turnkey program that installs Level 3 fast chargers at multi-location tire dealers and independent repair shops with no upfront cost to the shop.

1stMILE absorbs hardware, permitting, installation and maintenance costs

The company covers all four cost items, so participating shops pay nothing up front. Shops instead earn a share of charging revenue, and that share grows as utilization grows.

Charging sessions give service teams 20 to 40 minutes with each driver

A typical session brings a vehicle to 80% charge in 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the vehicle. 1stMILE says that window lets service staff greet drivers and suggest routine work such as tires, brakes, cabin filters and battery checks.
