For drivers looking to go beyond Sheffield and the UK, the app is able to access more than 590,000 public chargers across 30 European countries, meaning road trips abroad and visits to family for the summer season will be much easier.
Among the new features in the app is a ‘Plug & Charge’ function, compatible with Volvo Cars’ forthcoming flagship, the fully electric EX90. The feature eliminates complex transactions, providing a hassle-free charging experience.
A remote charging control also allows customers greater flexibility and control, enabling drivers to remotely start and stop charging sessions through the app while going about their weekly chores.
