OHME EV HOME CHARGER

The Ohme charger allows you to charge your vehicle comfortably at home with a number of added smart benefits.

Two Ohme charging units

Connected

The Ohme charger is connected to the cloud via an integrated sim card and can then be controlled with the Ohme mobile app†. The app then allows you to manage charging schedules, monitor progress and keep track of electricity usage and costs. 

Smart energy tariffs

New energy tariffs primarily designed for EV drivers, like the one from OVO Energy^^, incentivise charging during off-peak times by reducing the price of electricity. By telling Ohme your vehicle and your time-of-use energy tariff details, smart functionality will look to charge when prices are lower. 

Could you qualify for a grant?

The OZEV grant of up to £350 is available for people living in rented properties or homeowners who live in flats. Used towards the cost of a EV chargepoint, Ohme can claim on your behalf.

Lithium-ion batteries, of the type used in most electric vehicles (including CUPRA electric vehicles) have a restricted lifespan. Battery capacity will reduce over time, with use and charging. Reduction in battery capacity will affect the performance of the vehicle, including the range achievable, and may impact resale value. New car performance figures (including battery capacity and range) may be provided for the purposes of comparison between vehicles. You should not rely on new car performance figures (including battery capacity and range), in relation to used vehicles with older batteries, as they will not reflect used vehicle performance in the real world. For further information on battery degradation/preservation and the CUPRA 8 year/100,000 mile battery warranty, please click here.

 

Please note that some images and specifications may not reflect UK specification or may only be available as an option.​

 

Figures shown are for comparability purposes; only compare fuel consumption and CO2 figures with other vehicles tested to the same technical procedures. Figures may not reflect real life driving results.
