BICESTER, UNITED KINGDOM – 2 July 2025 – Polestar continues to strengthen its position as a frontrunner in electric mobility with the rapid expansion of Polestar Charge, its public charging service, which now offers over one million charging points across Europe. This milestone places Polestar Charge among the most extensive public charging networks on the continent, giving drivers greater accessibility, convenience, and value—all through a single integrated app.
Available in all Polestar markets across Europe, the network includes leading international charging operators such as IONITY, Recharge, Total, Fastned, Tesla Superchargers, and Allego, alongside local charging providers to ensure comprehensive national and regional coverage.
In the UK alone, Polestar Charge users now have access to more than 68,000 charging points, enabling drivers to locate, access, and pay for charging without switching between different platforms or subscriptions. For those who opt for the Polestar Charge subscription, the benefits are even more compelling—30% savings on charging fees at over 6,500 chargers operated by IONITY, InstaVolt, Sainsbury’s, MFG, Applegreen, and Fastned.
“We continue to expand our public charging coverage in the UK and across Europe day by day with popular public charging providers,” says Matt Galvin, Managing Director of Polestar UK. “As charging is made seamless via Plug & Charge capability and more cost-efficient with our 30% savings for subscribers, we’re making it even more attractive to own and drive a Polestar.”
Seamless Charging Through Smart Technology
Polestar Charge is designed to simplify every stage of public EV charging. It eliminates the clutter of multiple authentication methods and apps, offering one-touch access, payment integration, and route optimisation. Through built-in integration with Google Maps, Polestar drivers can plan journeys around efficient charging stops, automatically prioritising stations compatible with Polestar Charge.
Furthermore, Plug & Charge technology—already available for the Polestar 3—is now being rolled out in the UK for the 2026 model year Polestar 2 (MY26). This advancement allows the vehicle to automatically communicate with the charger and complete the transaction without the need for cards, apps, or additional identification steps, delivering a truly frictionless charging experience.
Driving the Future of Electrified Convenience
The expansion of Polestar Charge marks another key step in the brand’s mission to make premium EV ownership not only aspirational but effortless. By bringing more providers into its ecosystem and harnessing innovative technologies like Plug & Charge, Polestar is pushing the boundaries of what electric vehicle infrastructure can deliver.
With this network now surpassing one million charge points and offering exclusive savings and seamless integration, Polestar Charge is redefining how EV drivers interact with public charging—one plug-in at a time.
