Frequently Asked Questions

Our AmpCharge on the road charging points have industry standard CCS2 and CHAdeMO connectors attached to charging connectors as required by ARENA, which are generally compatible with most EVs available in Australia. You shouldn't need to bring your own charging cable to site. However, you may need to bring your plug adapter.

Your EV should lock the connector in place once your charging session begins. Along with your EV's security features, AmpCharge on the road charging sites are placed at our well known Ampol locations where sites are well-lit and staffed where possible.

The speed of charge is dependent on the power of the EV charger and your EV's charging capacity - different chargers have different max power outputs or 'speeds'.

Please check your vehicle's charging specifications to find out the charge times for different charger powers. Estimated charge times are provided in the table below

^Estimated charge times are based on the industry measure of Time (Hours) = battery size (kWh) divided by charger power (kW) which is to be used as a guide only. Please note other external factors influence charging time including, but not limited to, your vehicle specifications, state of charge, air temperature etc.

*Charging point confidence range is the maximum distance that someone would be confident driving on electric power between charges. Real range will depend on various factors including driving conditions, outside temperature, heating/air conditioning and driving style, etc. 

+Charging time may be limited by the maximum charging rate of the electric vehicle.
