Systems and methods for synchronizing charge status lights between electric vehicles (EVs) and EV charging stations are provided. One method includes establishing a communication link between a charging station control system and an electric vehicle coupled to a charging station. The method further includes receiving, from the charging station control system, a charge status light pattern configured to control operation of one or more charge status lights on the electric vehicle and one or more charge status lights on the charging station. The method further includes receiving a wireless time signal, and generating a synchronization time signal based on the wireless time signal. The method further includes controlling, based on the synchronization time signal and the charge status light pattern, operation of the charge status lights on the electric vehicle.
