Sandwich chain plans to add chargers at select locations, create parks featuring canopies, green space and Wi-Fi.

Consumers will soon be able to charge their electric vehicles while they eat a Spicy Italian.

Subway on Tuesday said it plans to add electric-vehicle chargers at select locations this year as part of a multi-year project to create larger Subway Oasis EV charging parks across the country.

The fast-food sandwich chain said the Oasis would feature charging canopies with multiple ports, picnic tables, Wi-Fi, restrooms, green space and playgrounds. The Milford, Connecticut-based company will begin rolling out smaller-format EV charging stations at select remodeled locations as a pilot project this year.

Subway is working with the Miami-based GenZ EV Solutions to help design and operate the charging network, and with Red E Charging, which will provide software for the chargers and operational expertise.

The companies are working together on the right number of charging stations and the right locations for them. Customer demand for EV charging will help guide many of these decisions, Subway said.
