Arnold Clark Charge has partnered with Octopus Electroverse to offer electric vehicle drivers access to one of the UK’s most competitive ultra-rapid charging rates.

Available exclusively through Octopus Electroverse, the new subscription costs £8.99 per month and gives subscribers instant access to a discounted charging rate of 39p/kWh across the Arnold Clark Charge network. This represents a 29% saving compared to the standard charging price.

The subscription is designed to help EV drivers reduce the cost of charging, particularly those who regularly rely on public charging infrastructure. It’s specifically aimed at motorists who are unable to install a home charger or those who frequently charge while travelling.

Arnold Clark’s UK-wide ultra-rapid network delivers fast, reliable charging at convenient locations. Drivers can unlock these discounted rates instantly by signing up through Octopus Electroverse.

Pablo Levi, group sustainability manager at Arnold Clark, said: “Making EV charging more affordable and accessible is a key part of supporting the UK’s transition to electric vehicles. Through our partnership with Octopus Electroverse, we’re giving drivers an easy way to reduce the cost of public charging without compromising on speed or convenience.

“Whether you don’t have access to home charging or simply spend a lot of time on the road, this subscription offers excellent value and helps make ultra-rapid charging even more accessible across our growing UK-wide network.”
