Ohme’s Home Pro smart charger can connect with the national grid in real time and automatically adjust its charging for drivers to take advantage of all the times of low-price charging with smart off-peak tariffs.

With the ID Buzz featuring a 77kWh battery and a WLTP range of more than 250 miles, it means that charging from zero to 100% with an Ohme Home Pro combined with a smart off-peak tariff from Octopus could cost just £7.70 compared to over £26 on the Standard Variable Tariff.

“We chose Ohme as our charging partner for Volkswagen and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles because of its award-winning Home Pro product and excellent attitude towards customer service,” said Alice Axtell from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles. “This latest bundled package with the ID Buzz further underlines that relationship with a great offer for customers buying this highly sought-after electric vehicle.”

Ohme also offers drivers the option to charge their vehicle when renewable energy generation on the National Grid is at its highest, further lowering their CO2 impact.

Ohme is the official charger provider for the Volkswagen and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles in the UK as well as for customers on the scheme run by major UK fleet operator Motability, and has been named as the Best Electric Charging Point Provider by Business Motoring.
