Michelin EV Charge gives fleet managers and drivers access to more than 1.2 million charge points through a single card and a dedicated app. Michelin Connected Fleet launched Michelin EV Charge this week as an addition to its electrification offering for companies moving to electric vehicles. The company says the service is fully integrated into its MyConnectedFleet platform, where charging data is combined with fleet telematics to analyze usage and optimize charging costs.
Highlights
- Network access: More than 1.2 million charge points via one card and one mobile app, according to Michelin.
- Fleet adoption: Michelin cites the 2026 Arval Mobility Observatory barometer, which found 57% of fleets already include EVs and a further 19% intend to switch within three years.
- Data integration: Charging and vehicle telematics data aggregate automatically in MyConnectedFleet, covering journeys, energy consumption, charging status and charging practices.
Why Is EV Roaming a Challenge for Fleets?
Michelin frames the launch around the pace of corporate fleet electrification in Europe. Citing the 2026 Arval Mobility Observatory barometer, the company reports that 57% of fleets already include electric vehicles and a further 19% intend to switch to electric in the next three years.
As fleets electrify, the company says, managing EV roaming across Europe remains a major operational challenge. Fleet managers and drivers must navigate different charging networks, tariffs and means of access.
How Does Michelin EV Charge Work for Drivers?
Drivers use one card and the dedicated mobile app to reach a charging network across Europe while on the road. According to Michelin, the app helps drivers:
- Locate available charging stations
- Prepare journeys
- Identify the charging options best suited to their needs
For fleet managers, the company says the service gives a clearer view of spending through transparent pricing, no extra network charges and, in certain cases, negotiated tariffs. Michelin presents this as added leverage to keep energy costs in check.
Charging Data Meets Fleet Telematics
The service sits within the Michelin Connected Fleet ecosystem and its MyConnectedFleet platform. It automatically aggregates charging data with vehicle telematics data, giving fleet managers a consolidated view of:
- Journeys
- Energy consumption
- Charging status
- Fleet charging practices
Michelin says that data can be used to identify charging practices that are not cost-effective and to make targeted recommendations that optimize charging habits and costs.
Where EV Charge Fits in Michelin’s Electrification Offering
Michelin EV Charge extends Michelin Connected Fleet’s electrification offering, which the company says supports businesses at each step of the move to electric mobility. Before this launch, the offering already allowed fleets to:
- Identify which vehicles are ready to electrify, based on real-life fleet practices
- Monitor battery level and range
The new service adds EV roaming optimization with the cost factor taken into account.
Sophie Foucque, CEO of Michelin Connected Fleet, said: “MICHELIN EV Charge is more than just a simple charging solution. By aggregating charging data with fleet vehicle data, we give companies a more detailed insight into vehicle usage and actionable solutions for bringing energy costs down. This new solution gives us more leverage to support fleet managers at each step of their transition to a more sustainable form of mobility by reconciling operational performance and cost control.”
