StromNow focuses on making the charging decision easier before and during the trip: Where can I charge? What does it cost? Does the charging stop fit my route? Is there something nearby that I can use during the charging break?

Charge across Europe with StromNow

With StromNow, you can charge across Europe and access over 1.1 million charging points. This is especially relevant for drivers who are not only travelling in Germany, but also planning trips to Austria, France, Italy, Scandinavia, Spain or other European countries.

AI route planner instead of a simple charging-station search

A simple charging-station search only answers one question: Where is a charging station?

The StromNow AI route planner goes further. It can connect to your vehicle and read consumption as well as battery level. This allows the route to be planned more realistically.

You can also choose whether you want to drive faster or more cost-effectively, prefer or avoid operators and include additional factors such as driving style, climate, passengers and weather.

Apple CarPlay for navigation

StromNow supports Apple CarPlay. After planning your route, you can navigate directly in the car or use navigation in the app. This is especially useful if you do not want to use charging stops and route guidance separately.

Road-Hazard-Alerts powered by Blitzer.de

StromNow integrates Road-Hazard-Alerts powered by Blitzer.de. This allows drivers to receive alerts about road hazards and speed cameras while driving. StromNow is therefore not only a charging app, but also a companion for navigation and traffic information on your EV route.
