Power Trip app

We want to make electric vehicles (EVs) easy and accessible for everyone. So, we made the Power Trip app to support EV drivers by:

The Power Trip app uses map data, the physics of your car and driving profile to estimate how much energy your car will need to get from A to B and which charging stops you’ll need to make.

Once you’ve set up your driver profile, you just need to tell the app where you’re going and it will work out the best, most efficient way for you to get there. If you need to stop somewhere specific on your journey, no sweat, just tell the app. It will also help you to find fun and delicious things to do while you’re waiting to charge.

Not sure that you’ve charged up enough to reach your next stop?

Power Trip’s

feature will show you the closest charging stations that your car is able to use, and how much juice you’ll need to drive there.

Did you know that a 2016 30kWh Nissan Leaf recharges at 2kW using AS/NZS 3112 harmonised NZ and Australian standard AC outlets?

In other words, you can plug your car in to a bog standard home plug to get a full charge overnight.

Our EV guide contains everything you need to know about EVs in plain English. Written with the help of EV experts, it’s easy to navigate and available in the app or on our website.

We’re building a network of businesses and organisations across New Zealand who support electric vehicles.

Need a service? Looking at a battery replacement? Hunting for a café that will give you a discount for driving electric? Find them all in the Power Trip app.

Keep your EV lifestyle easy with WOF and service reminders and notifications that you can tailor to your specific needs, like firmware updates and the upgrades that you are interested in.

Power Trip doesn’t steal your location data, force you to give us personal information, or fill your screen with ads.

It’s important to us to be transparent about the information we collect and to respect your personal information.
