If you’re a Millennial or Gen Z professional who already has or have just bought an electric vehicle with your 13th month bonus, you’re probably also wondering where you can go to charge your newest baby.
The good news is you don’t have to overthink it!
SM Supermalls has expanded its EV network to 77 EV charging stations nationwide, housing a total of 140 chargers across its malls. This makes SM the largest provider of EV Charging Stations in the Philippines!
For new EV owners, charging at SM Supermalls easily blends into your usual routine. You can plug in your vehicle (3 hours max!) and use the time to grab coffee, finish errands, or take advantage of ongoing mall promos and mall sales. Since the stations operate during mall hours, it’s effortless to fit a quick top-up into your day, whether you’re dropping by for government services in SM or visiting one of the most family-friendly malls in the Philippines.
And because everything you need is already in one place, waiting becomes productive. Some prefer to settle into a cafe with wifi to get work done, others stop by a wellness clinic in the mall for a quick check-in, and movie lovers can even catch a show at SM Cinema. Those looking for tech essentials can check gadget accessories stores, and fur parents will appreciate that many SM malls are pet friendly. Since EV chargers operate within mall hours, it’s best to check the SM mall hours before your visit — especially during the holidays, when special holiday mall hours may apply depending on the location. With options like these, charging feels less like downtime and more like part of your lifestyle.
Now imagine this: it’s holiday season, your EV is packed with snacks, and a curated playlist, and you’re on your way to Baguio. Before you hit NLEX, you drop by the nearest SM Supermall that is open now (maybe SM City North EDSA, SM City Fairview, or SM Mall of Asia) to get a full charge.
Keep warm with the (left) Souffle Yarn Mock Neck Sweater from Uniqlo or this cute (right) Jacquard-knit Jumper in Mickey Mouse print from H&M.
While your vehicle powers up, stroll inside The SM Store, Uniqlo, or H&M to grab this season’s trendiest jacket or sweater to keep you warm against the chilly Baguio air.
Stop not just to charge but also to fuel up your appetite with these scrumptious dishes like The Red King from Ramen Nagi or the latest Ultimate Cheesy 8 from Pizza Hut.
On the road, you’ll all pass by SM malls with EV charging, perhaps in SM City Pampanga or SM City Tarlac. Stopping becomes more than a necessity, it becomes part of the trip. You stretch your legs, pick up gifts at stores offering big discounts on clothes, or grab snacks at the food court. Kids can enjoy indoor attractions, and adults can enjoy entertainment in malls before getting back on the road.
Baguio is one of the best places to get good coffee, so make sure to do a pit stop at Highland Brews.
Once you arrive in the City of PInes, there’s comfort in knowing that if you go to SM City Baguio, you can top up again before exploring. While your EV charges, you stroll through the mall, shop at home decor shops, or enjoy the cool rooftop views. Charging doesn’t interrupt the adventure, it enhances it.
Another weekend, another vibe! This time you’re headed to Tagaytay. Before hitting SLEX, you stop at SM Aura, SM Mall of Asia, or SM Megamall for a quick topping-up session. Maybe you grab a cup of Deuces’ signature Spanish Latte at SM Aura — smooth, bold, and perfect for an early drive.
Grab a cuppa from Deuces or enjoy some good ol’ meaty burger from Shake Shack while your EV’s getting all juiced up.
If you choose SM Megamall, you might swing by Shake Shack for a ShackBurger and crinkle-cut fries, the ideal pre-road-trip comfort combo. And if you find yourself at SM Mall of Asia, Paris Baguette is always a win — especially if you pick up their Cream Cheese Pie paired with a refreshing iced Americano to take on the road.
As you continue south, you know Skyranch Tagaytay also offers charging, turning the stop into a mini date or barkada moment. While your EV fills up, you enjoy the rides, the food, and the chilly breeze. It’s the perfect setup for fans of indoor dates but with an outdoors-y Tagaytay twist.
Give your brows their much-needed beautification at Brow Lounge at SM City Bacoor. You can also get your nails done just in time for the holidays at Nail-a-holics at SM City Sta Rosa.
If you’re taking alternate routes, you might stop by SM City Bacoor or SM City Sta Rosa for a top-up. You can run errands at a wellness clinic nearby, window-shop, or buy jackets for the cold weather. Having access to these EV charging stations make the trip even more comfortable and effortless, never a hassle.
Whether you’re driving north to Baguio or south to Tagaytay, or wherever in the Philippines, SM Supermalls makes EV ownership unbelievably convenient. It’s not just the electric vehicle charge in malls that matter. It’s also in the comfort of knowing there are family-friendly malls in the Philippines with EV chargers along your route.
It’s also worth noting that SM’s EV charging ecosystem includes both free and paid options, depending on location and vehicle type. While many chargers remain complimentary, select tenants operate their own charging services. These include Tesla Superchargers, available exclusively for Tesla vehicles at SM Mall of Asia; Boost+ chargers found at National University Mall of Asia and at the Mall of Asia Arena Annex and designed to support EVs that require DC fast charging; and VGreen, located at SM City North EDSA, which caters exclusively to VinFast vehicles, including GSM or the VinFast taxi fleet.
With strategic locations, reliable chargers, and everything you need inside one space, SM turns every EV charging stop into a moment to rest, explore, and enjoy.
If you’re wondering where to charge electric vehicles, the answer covers nearly every major highway and city: just look for the nearest SM.
