Practical Notes: G580 with EQ on FLO
The G580 with EQ's CCS port plugs directly into FLO's CCS stalls without an adapter. Check the FLO app before your first session to confirm which connector your target station uses — mixed-connector deployments are common in 2026.
On a session-by-session basis, the G580 with EQ's 200 kW peak charging speed exceeds what FLO's Level 2 hardware can deliver. You'll be limited by the car's onboard AC charger (11 kW), so a full charge takes roughly 8h 26m. L2 is best for destination or overnight charging, not road-trip pit stops.
Cost-wise, one $32.48 full charge on FLO represents $0.14 per mile of driving — about 13.6¢/mile. A gas equivalent at 30 mpg and $3.50/gal is roughly 11.7¢/mile, so this charging session is more expensive than gas at current prices. Over 15,000 miles/year, exclusive reliance on FLO would cost roughly $2,548.12/year in fuel — a meaningful delta compared to mostly-home charging (~$1,201.26/year).
For most G580 with EQ owners, the realistic use-pattern for FLO is road trips and occasional top-ups — not primary fueling. If you live in an apartment or condo and rely on public charging as your main option, factor in the per-session pricing with no membership option. For regular home charging in a specific state, check our home vs public analysis and your G580 with EQ state-by-state breakdown.
