ICE's 6-charger fast hub 2–3 km west of SJO airport, with a Coopedota coffee shop and Wi-Fi. Connector types not published — newer ICE units have CCS1, GB/T and often CHAdeMO; check the app. ICE network: you need a ¡Es Eléctrico! account (passport + Visa/Mastercard; the sign-up form asks for a Costa Rican +506 phone and activation can take up to 24 h) — set it up before relying on ICE chargers. ₡126/min + VAT. Help line 1194 (24/7).

Check your car's plug: fast chargers in Costa Rica use CCS1, CHAdeMO or GB/T — not the European CCS2.
