Volvo Cars is simplifying the way drivers of its electric and plug-in hybrid cars recharge with an in-car app that eliminates the need to swipe a payment method to unlock a charging station and consolidates multiple charging network accounts into one.

The ChargePoint in-car app enables drivers of Volvo Recharge cars with Google Android Automotive OS to search for and navigate to a place to charge, as well as start and pay for a charging session, at thousands of locations across the country from the comfort of their vehicle. Only those Volvo cars with a plug for charging carry the Recharge badge.

Developed by ChargePoint in collaboration with Volvo Car Technology in Silicon Valley, the ChargePoint in-car app enables access to most of ChargePoint’s more than 100,000 places to charge throughout North America. Beyond its own network, ChargePoint has active roaming integrations with partners including EVgo and FLO among others. This means a single ChargePoint account will give Volvo Cars’ customers access to more than 80 percent of public AC and DC stations across the U.S. and Canada today, with additional access in the coming months.
