The Porsche Charging Service (Plus)
Depending on the charge point operator, you might notice price differences when charging your EV (charge point providers vary according by region). Most charging point operators charge different prices for AC and DC charging stations. Additionally, some public charging stations apply dynamic pricing, meaning the cost per kilowatt-hour rises during peak hours when demand is high.
The Porsche Charging Service is offered in two subscription plans: Porsche Charging Service and Porsche Charging Service Plus. Both plans give you access to more than 1 million charging points across Europe with a nationwide, fixed pricing structure - independent of peak times or individual charge point operators. With Porsche Charging Service Plus, customers benefit from attractive discounted rates at Porsche Preferred Partners, adding even more value when charging at selected partner locations.
