Audi is introducing
a kWh-based price to the e-tron Charging Service that allows customers to
charge their cars with quick-charge service provider IONITY. Here, e-tron
customers benefit from heavily discounted rates with the transit rate at 31
cents per kilowatt hour used.
Along the highway,
Audi’s proprietary charging card allows e-tron customers to charge their cars
at the High Power Charging terminals of the IONITY network at special rates
with the transit rate. There, the customer will pay only for the amount of
energy actually drawn in future. The price of 31 cents per kilowatt hour
corresponds to the average cost level for a charging process at a private home.
Freedom to choose: Two rates
To cover individual
charging needs, the e-tron Charging Service offers two different rates. The
city rate is aimed primarily at urban commuters and is available for a basic
fee of €4.95 per month. For each charging process, customers then pay €7.95 for
AC charging (up to 22 kW) and €9.95 for DC charging (up to 150 kW),
regardless of the charging duration and how much energy is drawn. Due to a high
number of existing charging terminals that do not yet enable consumption-based
billing in compliance with calibration laws, this session price guarantees that
customers can use a large number of charging points at transparent prices.
For drivers who
regularly travel long-distance, Audi recommends the transit rate. This costs
€17.95 per month, although a one-year waiver of the basic fee is granted for
owners of a new Audi e-tron**. With the transit rate at 31 cents per kWh,
customers benefit not only from better access conditions with IONITY but above
all from higher charging capacities and short charging durations. There, the
Audi e-tron charges with an output of up to 150 kW and is therefore ready for
the next leg of its long-distance trip in around half an hour.
*Prices valid for
the German market; minimum term: 12 months.
Freedom to travel: Standardized prices abroad too
Standardized,
country-specific prices mean that you can travel freely and easily without
having to constantly compare prices. Customers can also charge their cars
abroad in – to date – 24 European countries with a contract. Audi
customers will always pay the standard price (based on charging speed) in
whatever country they are in – and without any extra roaming costs. Thus, a
customer traveling in a foreign country can charge their car at exactly the
same price as a local user.
My Audi app: Easy to use
The my Audi app or
Audi navigation system can help you to locate the nearest charging station. In
addition to planning your route and activating the charging points that it
finds, the my Audi app can also tell you whether or not the charging terminal
is currently available for use. You can start the charging process using your
Audi charging card or the my Audi app. Identification and billing are performed
automatically in the background. The app also displays the current charge
status of your car.
Contract: Easy and transparent
To use the e-tron
Charging Service, customers need to register once on the my Audi portal and conclude an individual
charging contract. If necessary, your local Audi partner can help you to
activate your contract. All charging processes are automatically billed
together at the end of the month. You can use the myAudi portal or my Audi app
to view your charging history and bills as well as manage your contract
arrangements.
The network coverage of the e-tron Charging Service is
constantly growing. For more information about the network and country-specific
