Arnold Clark Charge has opened six new ultra-rapid electric vehicle (EV) chargers at its York Motorstore.

Located in York Business Park, the site is open to all and will support both local EV users and those travelling longer distances through the region.

The ultra-rapid charging rates are priced at just 55p per kWh – significantly lower than the current UK average of 76p per kWh.

The ultra-rapid chargers allow drivers to quickly top up their vehicles, minimising downtime and making electric travel more practical for everyday use.

Payments can be made easily via the Arnold Clark app, through roaming partners, or by using contactless payment at the chargers.

In addition to fast and affordable charging, customers can enjoy a free coffee in branch while their vehicle charges, adding extra convenience to the charging experience.

Pablo Levi, Group Sustainability Manager at Arnold Clark, said: “The launch of our latest ultra-rapid chargers in York marks another key milestone in the expansion of Arnold Clark Charge across the UK.

“Our aim is to make EV charging straightforward, cost-effective and widely accessible, whether customers are driving locally or travelling further afield.

“By investing in ultra-rapid charging at important locations like this, we’re supporting the shift to electric vehicles while delivering tangible benefits for drivers and local communities.”
