Ad vs ChargeIndex

The Ad-Hoc Map shows you charging stations with a CCS connector and a charging capacity of at least 50 kW, where ad-hoc charging is possible without registration. Payment can be made directly on-site by credit or debit card, QR code, SMS, or via charging apps without registration.

What does charging cost here? ChargeIndex shows the ad-hoc price per kWh at charging stations right on the map before you arrive, and works as an EV route planner that picks charging stops by price, detour and charging time. Charge cheaper across Europe. Account optional. CHARGING PRICES ON THE MAP At every charging station with a published price you see the kWh price for spontaneous charging, with or without a charging card. Colour shows charging power: green for AC, blue for DC, orange for HPC fast chargers. Filter by maximum price and power and compare chargers near you. CHOOSE YOUR CHARGING CARD The common charging cards are built in, any others you add yourself: per country, for AC and DC, by power. You see the cheapest matching price, card or ad-hoc, and what you really pay at the charger. Price comparison made simple. EV ROUTE PLANNER Enter start, destination, car and battery level and ChargeIndex picks the charging stops that fit your budget and your time. A slider sets how many minutes a saved euro is worth to you. The consumption model accounts for elevation, speed and regeneration, and charging time follows your car's charging curve (650+ models). Every stop comes with several alternatives. With an account you also get route variants: faster, cheaper or ad-hoc only. Hand the route to Apple Maps, Google Maps, HERE WeGo or export it as a GPX file.
