Parcheggio Parterre, off Piazza della Libertà just north of the centre, is the reviewers’ pick for parking outside the ZTL and walking in. “Best place to park your car outside the ZTL zone when visiting Florence,” writes one; “really safe with plenty of spaces and entry/exit/payment is so simple, cash or card.” It runs about “€15/day,” you can leave the car for days, and it is “an easy walk to main town” — roughly 10–15 minutes to the Duomo, or the frequent little C1 electric bus if you have luggage. It even has “10 charging points for electric cars (€0.59/kWh),” although a reviewer notes they sit behind a gate, so you must call the attendant to use them. The only sour notes are a fiddly paid toilet (€1) and the odd payment-machine hiccup. For a safe, cheap, fine-free base near the centre, it is hard to beat.

Does Parterre have EV charging?
