The Ask
There is an opportunity to streamline and rethink the charging station itself for both vehicles and guests. What does it look like to use spatial audio or visuals, haptics or other immersive experiences? How can we create not just a charging port, but a destination?
The Opportunity
The rise of multi-modal mobility and expectations of new shared space models creates an interesting opportunity for charging stations. By answering what it means to truly refuel guests, through social, experiential, or functional means, we can create an innovative mobility hub of the future.
Considering what is a common thread among guests in this space, what drives guests to come here? How can we rethink our interactions? How do we use digital as a means to account for the time spent in the space, rather than accounting for just the physical space?
