Nissan has launched a new-generation version of its Nissan Charge app in partnership with Octopus Energy.
Nissan says that following the integration of Octopus’s charging platform, users can now charge at more than a million chargers across Europe from more than 1,200 operators.
A new discovery tool within the app displays real-time availability, allows filtering by charging speed and plug type, and gives access to exclusive pricing through participating networks.
A new user interface has been installed, and users can add payment methods such as Google or Apple Pay.
Nissan Energy director Soufiane El Khomri said: “The new Nissan Charge app is an important step in our mission to make electric driving seamless and accessible.
“By introducing future-ready features, we’re not only helping drivers connect to Europe’s vast charging network, but we’re also laying the foundation for EVs to play an active role in the energy system of tomorrow.
“It aligns perfectly with our electrification journey, from our EV36Zero initiative to the exciting arrival of our next-generation models like the all-new Micra and Leaf.”
Octopus Electroverse director Matt Davies said: “For the first time, Electroverse’s technology has been integrated into another brand’s charging app — and we’re thrilled to see that debut with Nissan.
“As EVs become mainstream, drivers want a charging experience as smart as their vehicle. By bringing our cutting-edge technology into the Nissan Charge app, we’re delivering the best of Electroverse – simple access to 80% of all chargers across Europe, money-saving discounts, and quick, hassle-free payments.
“It’s great to see Nissan embracing Electroverse’s technology to make charging simpler, smarter, and ready for their customers.”
