The app offers Audi e-tron owners a convenient one-stop solution for accessing multiple electric vehicle charging partners.
Audi, the German luxury car manufacturer, has unveiled “Charge my Audi” on the myAudiConnect app, a ground-breaking feature that provides Audi e-tron customers with access to a diverse range of electric vehicle charging partners, all through a single app. This industry-first initiative, known as Charge my Audi, enhances convenience and simplifies the charging experience for Audi e-tron owners.
Through the myAudiConnect app, Audi e-tron customers can efficiently plan their driving routes, locate charging stations along the way, check the availability of charging terminals, initiate and stop charging, and conveniently make payments via a single payment gateway. The app currently offers access to five charging partners, including Aargo EV Smart, Charge Zone, Relux Electric, LionCharge, and Zeon Charging, all powered by Numocity Technologies’ eMSP roaming solution.
To further enhance the customer experience, Audi e-tron owners can enjoy complimentary charging across the network until August 2023. Currently, more than 750 charge points are available on the Charge my Audi app, with additional locations expected to be added in the coming weeks and months.
