The EV ownership experience in Australia is set to get easier with Evie Networks launching its Autocharge feature nationwide. This system allows EV owners to charge without a smartphone app or RFID card. Autocharge, similar to Tesla’s Superchargers, will automatically start the charging process. This initiative comes after a survey found 30% of Australian drivers felt unsure about EV charging technology. Customers need to pre-fill their car details on their account for Autocharge to work. While most EVs are compatible, Volkswagen’s MEB-based models may not be. Autocharge will expand to 83% of Evie’s Australian charging locations by early 2024. Evie’s Autocharge launch follows Chargefox’s partnership with NRMA to integrate chargers into their app.
Brands mentioned: Evie Networks, Tesla, Volkswagen, Skoda
