What does the "Only charge off-peak..." setting do?

Modified on Mon, 15 Jul at 9:00 AM

With the advanced setting enabled, your car will only charge when your electricity rate is cheaper.


To restrict smart charging to your off-peak hours:

  • Tap on the smart tab to open your "Smart Charging Settings" 
  • Switch "Only Charge Off-Peak" ON


If you have a dynamic rate tariff with multiple off-peak periods, the "Price limit" option will appear below it. With this advanced setting enabled, your car will only charge when your electricity rate drops below or is equal to the price you set:

  • Tap the button to bring up the modal: you can now use the slider to set your off-peak threshold
  • Tap "Save"


Please note:

  • With this setting enabled, you may not reach full charge if this cannot be delivered in the off-peak time period.
  • You can temporarily override this setting by tapping "Boost" on your dashboard at any time.
