Learn how to charge your Volvo electric car.
At home with an intelligent wallbox, at a public charger outside your favorite restaurant, or at a DC fast charging station. The Volvo Cars app allows you to schedule charging sessions, locate public charging stations, and even handle payments.
The Volvo Cars app is your gateway to fuss-free electric driving. With a few quick taps you can check your current charging status, set your home charging schedule, find charging stations within range and even make payments on the go.
Charging at home may cost less than using public stations, especially during off-peak hours. Simply schedule charging for late at night or early morning which, depending on your energy plan, may help save money - without the extra stops.
With a Level 2 home charging station on your driveway, you have convenient access to fast and powerful charging whenever you want to. Simply set a charging schedule that fits your plans, and your electric car is always ready for daily commutes, quick errands or road trips.
Find charging stations before you set off in the Volvo Cars app, or locate them on the road through Google Maps in your car's center display. You can filter by charging speed, charging networks, plug type, and availability. By entering your final destination, Google Maps in your vehicle will incorporate charging stops into your route when and where you need them. Additionally, it will suggest the amount of time you should spend charging so you can get back on the road faster. And when your battery drops to 20%, Google Maps in your car will suggest nearby chargers and guide you there - showing your estimated charge level on arrival.

The Volvo Cars app gives you a complete overview of all charging features. With the app, you can easily monitor the charging status (ongoing, completed or fault) and check the available range. You can also control the charging speed of your home charger and set your preferred charging schedule.
Forgot to bring your wallet? Tired of paper receipts? No worries. Simply choose and save your preferred payment method to effortlessly handle transactions and track your charging expenses through the app.

Public chargers are categorized as DC fast chargers or AC destination chargers. DC fast chargers offer the fastest way to charge your car, while AC destination chargers typically top up your electric car in a few hours. Fully electric Volvo cars and plug-in hybrids are compatible with all AC destination chargers. Additionally, our electric vehicles now support the North American Charging Standard (NACS), enabling access to Tesla's Supercharger network for an additional 22,000+ and growing, public fast charging stations nationwide. In your fully electric Volvo, both Google Maps on the in-car navigation and the Volvo Cars app can show which charge points have the right plug for your car.
