Promising rapid, one-stop EV charger installations, Toyota’s tie-up with Treehouse aims to simplify overnight charging and bring it straight to US driveways.
Toyota Motor North America has announced a partnership with electrical contractor Treehouse to streamline residential installation of Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) chargers for Toyota and Lexus customers.
The collaboration aims to simplify the process of setting up home charging infrastructure, offering upfront installation quotes within 48 hours.
Treehouse uses proprietary ‘virtual scoping technology’ to assess each property’s requirements. Customers submit photos and complete a short survey, after which the company provides a tailored installation plan.
A licensed electrician then completes the installation in a single visit, including any necessary electrical upgrades and local permits.
According to Treehouse, typical installation costs range from $1500 to $2750 and include all associated work. Level 2 chargers, which operate on a 240-volt supply, can fully charge an EV in around eight to ten hours, making overnight charging practical.
Toyota and Lexus vehicles from 2026 onwards are supplied with dual-voltage charging cables, enabling both faster Level 2 charging and slower Level 1 charging via a standard household outlet.
Treehouse also offers customers the option to install ChargePoint’s Home Flex Level 2 charger, which can further reduce charging times depending on the vehicle and configuration. The company has previously worked with Ford, GM Energy, Tesla, Rivian and CarMax, and serves as a contractor for ChargePoint installations.
Toyota has launched a dedicated charging hub website to provide customers with information on available options.
Thibaut de Barros Conti, Vice President of Business Incubation & Development at Toyota Motor North America, said the partnership ensures that the home-charging experience matches the ease of vehicle ownership.
Treehouse CEO Eric Owski added that the collaboration reflects a shared commitment to making electrification accessible and straightforward for consumers.
