Access over 600,000 public fast chargers across Europe - all through the Volvo Cars app

Through a partnership with mobility provider Digital Charging Solutions, our latest features, seamlessly integrated into the Volvo Cars app, aim to simplify access to public fast chargers, payments, and the overall charging experience.


More access, more convenience


Owners of existing fully electric Volvo models such as the XC40 Recharge and C40 Recharge, as well as forthcoming customers of EX90 and EX30, will have the opportunity to access a significant network of more than 1,000 different charge point operators encompassing over 600,000 public chargers across 30 countries throughout Europe.

“Expanding access to more public fast-charger networks across Europe and also making it easy to pay for through one access point – the Volvo Cars app – means peace-of-mind when crossing the continent. We want to make the charging experience seamless no matter where our customers drive,” says Julia Sandén, Business Owner for Charging, at Volvo Cars.

Cross-border travel remains one of the key features with this service, however widening the scope of the accessible network means drivers of fully electric Volvos can go even further thanks to a greater spread of publicly accessible chargers.

At Volvo Cars, we are committed to continually enhance the public charging offer, ensuring that it caters to the evolving needs of both private and business customers. With this in mind, we are introducing a range of new features:


  • Plug & Charge Functionality: Available for our flagship fully electric SUV, the EX90, this feature ensures a hassle-free experience at public chargers, eliminating complex transactions.

  • Remote charging control: Through the Volvo Cars app, customers can now remotely manage their charging sessions, offering flexibility and control.

  • Monthly invoicing and business driver accounts: A new functionality allows customers to set up a business driver account for VAT and company invoicing purposes, simplifying the process for business users.

  • Subscription Offers: Customers can get subscription offers on public charging, allowing them to access preferential pricing on high-power charging stations. These offers will vary by market, ensuring that our customers receive the best possible value.
