CHARGING A PLUG-IN ELECTRIC HYBRID (PHEV) AWAY FROM HOME
TOP UP WHILE YOU’RE PARKED UP
Beyond the ultimate convenience and cost savings of home charging, a timely top-up at your destination can be a great way to extend the electric range of your Land Rover electric hybrid throughout the day.
This will also help to reduce your fuel costs and your environmental footprint thanks to zero tailpipe emissions when driving in full Electric Vehicle (EV) mode.
WHERE CAN I CHARGE AWAY FROM HOME?
With a rapidly-growing network of charging points across the US – including malls, gyms, parking lots and even your workplace – there have never been more opportunities to charge up while you’re parked up.
And finding them all couldn’t be simpler. With your Land Rover vehicle's InControl navigation system16 you’ll always have thousands of accessible charging points at your fingertips.

IN-CAR NAVIGATION
The Land Rover Pivi navigation system16 allows you to create door-to-door route planning while monitoring live traffic and highlighting charging points along the way.
HOW DO I CHARGE AWAY FROM HOME?
To connect to a charging point, your Land Rover electric hybrid uses a Combined Charging System (CCS). This is compatible with slower AC charging speeds, and on selected models, rapid DC charging speeds. Some other car manufacturers use different systems for charging such as CHAdeMO. These are less-widely used across the charging network and are incompatible with Land Rover electric hybrids.
AC CHARGING
The top part of your vehicle’s CCS inlet is used for AC charging (up to 7kW). AC charging points are typically located in malls, gyms and parking lots.
RAPID DC CHARGING
On selected models, the lower half of your vehicle’s CCS inlet features two pins that combine with three of the pins above to provide rapid DC charging (up to 50kW) typically on highways and main roads. The two lower pins can be accessed by removing the lower socket cover.
HOW DO I PAY FOR CHARGING?
TAP IT OR APP IT
Although some charge points are free to use, the majority are accessible via convenient pay-as-you-go methods, including mobile apps, membership accounts, or a contactless bank card. The cost of charging will typically be a combination of a connection fee, charging time (cost per hour) and/or the amount of energy used (cost per kWh).
We recommend familiarizing yourself with more than one provider to ensure the best coverage and payment methods at your destination – especially when visiting another country.
