Audi has signed up Ohme as its official charging partner in the UK.

Audi will recommend Ohme chargers for all its electrified vehicle sales in the UK

The agreement will see Audi recommend Ohme chargers for all its electrified vehicle sales, with an Ohme Home Pro charger in showrooms for customers to view.

“Our partnership with Audi underlines Ohme’s position as one of the UK’s fastest-growing smart charging companies,” said David Watson, CEO at Ohme. “Audi has been leading EV introduction in the UK with its e-tron range and continues to be at the forefront of the new technology with its Q4 e-tron and Q8 e-tron models and e-tron GT sports coupe.

“We’re looking forward to introducing Audi drivers to the benefits of smart charging with reduced running costs and working with Audi’s retailers to help their customers through the entire process with our bespoke dealer portal.”

It follows on from a similar deal for Volkswagen, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Škoda, SEAT and Cupra in October 2022 and also for the whole group in Volkswagen Ireland in February.

“We are delighted to announce that we will be partnering with Ohme as one of our recommended home charger suppliers,” said Andrew Doyle, Audi UK brand director. “Ohme’s award-winning smart chargers and excellent attitude towards customer service and professionalism align with Audi’s core values and culture.”

Ohme’s dynamic smart chargers can connect with the national grid in real time and automatically adjust to take advantage of low-price charging with smart off-peak tariffs.

Fully charging an Audi Q4 Sport 40 e-tron with an Ohme smart charger on a smart off-peak tariff, such as Octopus Intelligent, could cost £7.70 for a 321-mile range (WLTP).

Ohme also offers drivers the option to charge their car when renewable energy generation on the National Grid is high, further reducing their CO2 impact.
