An electric vehicle charging system includes a computing device having a processor and a memory storage device. The computing device is programmed to initiate electric charging of an electric vehicle and provide access to a different vehicle while the electric vehicle is charging. An example method that may be executed by the charging station includes detecting a first vehicle at a charging station, initiating electric charging of the first vehicle at the charging station, transmitting a lock signal to a charge cord of the charging station to lock the charge cord to the first vehicle, providing access to a second vehicle while the first vehicle is charging, detecting a return of the second vehicle to the charging station, and transmitting an unlock signal to the charge cord to unlock the charge cord from the first vehicle.
