HYUNDAI UK has chosen smart charging company Ohme as its new official home charging partner. The agreement will see Hyundai recommend Ohme chargers for its EV sales.
Ohme Chief Executive David Watson said: “Hyundai’s EV models are some of the most sought-after in the market and a perfect match for Ohme’s unique software and technology. We look forward to introducing Hyundai drivers to the benefits of dynamic smart charging with reduced running costs and low CO2 charging.”
Ohme’s dynamic smart chargers can connect with the grid in real time, automatically adjusting to optimise the cost of charging and accessing all the times of the smartest, greenest and lowest cost energy tariffs.
Running a Hyundai IONIQ 6 Single Motor RWD with its 77.4kWh battery (WLTP range: 338mls) and an Ohme smart charger on Intelligent Octopus Go, could cost £116.80 for a year for an average UK driver doing 6800 miles. By comparison, charging on the Standard Variable Tariff would cost £451.62 for the same distance and an equivalent petrol car would be more than £1200.
