Toyota and Lexus Introduce Treehouse for EV Charger Setup
Ā Ā The rise of the EV market is bringing consumers new innovations in both vehicle performance and charging infrastructure. Toyota and Lexus have entered a new partnership with Treehouse, a software-based operating system, to make home charging installations simple and convenient for hybrid and EV owners.
What is Treehouse?
Treehouse is a dedicated operating system for EVs and hybrids that makes purchasing and installing a Level 2 home charger effortless. It offers a complete home charging experience for Toyota and Lexus drivers, ranging from initial scoping to permitting and final setup. While many home construction tasks require multiple visits from contractors, Treehouse offers a one-time visit for a quote, allowing the project to proceed once you give the okay. This turnkey project management provides peace of mind by removing the guesswork from the installation process. Owners can be confident that Treehouse works with licensed electricians who will check your propertyās needs and ensure a safe installation.
Home Charging Options
The charging power of your Toyota or Lexus depends on its model year. All 2026 hybrid and EV models come with a standard 120V/240V AC charger for home use, which supports Level 1 and Level 2 charging. These systems offer a maximum output of 7.7 kW, allowing for a nearly full charge overnight. Location can also play a role; for example, California requires dual-voltage cables for BEVs. Toyota has included this in BEVs since 2024 and will add it to PHEVs in 2026. This technology is now standard for all qualifying models nationwide.
Benefits For All
Standardizing the Level 2 charger for every Toyota and Lexus EV and hybrid gives owners several advantages. The dual-voltage cable is compatible with 240V outlets installed by Treehouse, making home charging easy. For added protection, the cable is also covered by a warranty.
