The reach of electric vehicles (EVs) just got a boost with a partnership between Audi South Africa and GridCars with the finalisation of the installation of 33 EV-charging stations across the country for any such vehicle no matter what model or brand.
The new charging stations represent a total of 70 charge point connectors, and they expand on the existing network in the country. The chargers’ range in their charging capacity from 22 kW (AC) to 80 kW (DC) and 150 kW (DC) ultra-fast charging and are immediately available to all South African electric vehicle drivers.
“Audi is committed to ensuring that owners of any electric vehicle can comfortably travel the country, with the reassurance that the EV-charging infrastructure is in place to support their progressive choice of mobility. With the public Audi EV chargers now formally available and in operation, our project to ensure that there are active state-of-the-art EV chargers at key destination and lifestyle venues across South Africa, is tracking well, and we are excited to officially encourage all early adopters of electric mobility to utilise these charge points,” says Sascha Sauer, Head of Audi South Africa.
