The growing number of electric vehicles on the road is leading to new advancements in charging technology. Toyota and Lexus are leading the way by partnering with Treehouse—a software operating system—to provide a more convenient and efficient home charging installation process for their customers.

What is Treehouse?

Treehouse is a unique operating platform for EV and hybrid drivers that simplifies the purchase and setup of Level 2 home charging stations. For Toyota and Lexus owners, it offers a total management solution that covers project scope, permits, and final installation. While typical home renovation projects often involve multiple contractor visits, Treehouse offers a single-visit quote to get the project moving quickly. This turnkey service provides extra peace of mind by managing the entire process for you. You can trust that Treehouse works exclusively with licensed electricians who evaluate your home’s electrical system and ensure a safe, high-quality charger installation.

Home Charging Options

Home charging capabilities are tied to the model year of your Lexus or Toyota. For 2026, all new hybrid and EV models come standard with a 120V/240V AC charger, enabling both Level 1 and Level 2 charging at your residence. These systems provide a 7.7 kW output, which is enough for a nearly full charge while you sleep. Location is also a factor; states like California require BEVs to be sold with dual-voltage cables. Toyota has offered this in BEVs since 2024 and is expanding the feature to PHEVs in 2026. This dual-voltage technology is now standard for all eligible vehicles across the country.

Benefits For All

Standardizing Level 2 chargers for all Toyota and Lexus hybrid and EV models provides numerous benefits. The dual-voltage cable is compatible with 240V outlets installed by Treehouse, allowing for efficient home charging. A warranty is also included with the cable to ensure reliability.
