Volkswagen Australia and Ampol have reached an agreement that will see Volkswagen Australia electric vehicle (EV) customers gain access to Ampol’s AmpCharge home EV charging offer and discounts at its public EV charging stations nationwide.
Volkswagen ID. customers will receive discounted Ampol public EV charging rates for the first 12 months of ownership, with rates to be determined closer to the ID. electric vehicle range launch.
Volkswagen has more than 100 dealerships nationally, all of which are currently being prepared to sell and service the brand’s battery-electric ID. brand vehicle rollout that begins in 2024/25 with the ID.4, ID.4 GTX, ID.5, ID.5 GTX, ID. Buzz and ID. Buzz Cargo. Each dealership will also offer charging options for customers.
“80 per cent of charging in urban areas will be done at home, while we are supporting the growing Ampol network on the open road, so this association literally empowers our customers wherever they live around this great country,” said Michal Szaniecki, Director of Volkswagen Passenger Vehicles.
Volkswagen will announce the rates for Ampol public vehicle charging, ahead of the ID. range rollout commencing in the second half of 2024.
