Charging an electric Porsche is about to get less tedious, at least in some parts of the world.
On Wednesday, Porsche opened its first-ever Porsche Charging Lounge, a charging station that offers refreshments and other amenities to owners of electric Porsche vehicles.
The station, which is located outside Bingen am Rhein in Germany, offers six 300-kW DC fast charging stations, as well as four 22-kW AC charging stalls. But it also offers a lounge area with sanitary facilities, a "large selection" of soft drinks and snacks, fast wi-fi connection, and an area for workouts equipped with a "smart mirror," which can also display interactive Porsche content.

A Porsche Taycan typically charges from 10 to 80 percent in about 20 minutes, so there's normally a bit of time to kill.
The Porsche Charging Lounge is partially powered by solar cells on the roof, and is heated and air-conditioned by a heat pump that operates without fossil fuels, says Porsche.

The lounge and the charger can also be accessed by using a Porsche Charging Card, or a QR code from the MyPorsche app.
The charging area is equipped with 6 fast DC chargers and 4 AC chargers. Credit: PorschePorsche plans to open more Charging Lounges in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The company boasts a network of more than 436,000 charging points in over 20 European countries. Porsche, which only has a single EV in its lineup, the Taycan (which admittedly does come in numerous configurations), plans to sell more than 80 percent all-electric new vehicles by 2030.
Porsche is not the first company with a luxury EV charging lounge, though. At some Supercharger locations, Tesla has a lounge that's accessible only to Tesla owners; last year, the company deployed futuristic cube lounges at a Supercharger station in Germany, offering bathroom facilities, snacks, and an automated pizza machine.
