Why you should use tado° Smart Charging?

With tado° Smart Charging, you can specify your charging preferences, such as the time by which you want your electric car to be fully charged.

Now you can start saving on your energy bill while balancing the grid and charging with more sustainable energy!
* Electric vehicles from following brands can be connected directly: BMW, Audi, Jaguar, Land Rover, Mini, SEAT, Skoda, Tesla, Volkswagen. For some brands (e. g. Mercedes, Peugeot, Citroën, Porsche, Ford, CUPRA, Opel or Kia) a smart wallbox must also be installed and connected. Smart wallboxes from Zaptec, Wallbox or Easee are compatible with the app.
