Plug & Charge
What is Plug & Charge?
If you need to charge your electric car, all you need to do is plug it in and it'll charge - no app or charging card is needed. The authentication to initiate a charging session at a public charge point will take place directly between the vehicle and the charge point – saving you both time and hassle.
Currently, the following Hyundai electric vehicles are Plug & Charge capable: the IONIQ 5 N, IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, and KONA Electric.
