Summer is here, and with it, the season for great road trips. We know that many of you charge conveniently and cheaply at home for most of the year. But when the summer holidays arrive, the public charging network suddenly becomes your constant companion – and with it, the search for the best price.

For this exact moment, we have developed a solution that is as flexible as your travel plans.

📲 The Chargeprice Summer Pass

We’ve heard your feedback: you want to use the full power of our premium features for your holiday trip, but you don’t necessarily want a permanent subscription. That’s why we’re launching the Chargeprice Summer Pass just in time for the travel season.

• • Everything included, no subscription: Unlock all premium features for a one-off payment of €7.99.
  • Full duration: The pass is valid immediately for the entire summer – until September 30th.
  • Stress-free across Europe: Use real-time availability, advanced filters, and tariff details exactly when you need them most – with no automatic renewal.

🏝️ Why Chargeprice is your essential holiday companion

Whether you’re heading to the Adriatic, Provence, or the North Sea – charging prices across Europe in summer 2026 are varying more than ever. While a provider in Italy might be a bargain, the same tariff in France could unnecessarily strain your holiday budget.

• • Transparency across borders: Chargeprice shows you in real-time which of your charging cards offers the best deal at your holiday destination.
  • No surprises: We factor in blocking fees and starting costs so you can spend your money on an ice cream at the promenade instead of hidden charging costs.
  • Find shaded spots: Thanks to our new photo feature, you can instantly see if a station is covered. This protects you from the heat and ensures your battery cools more efficiently while charging.

💡 Chargeprice Pro Tip: The “Summer Efficiency Curve”

Did you know that your EV reaches its absolute peak efficiency in June and July? The air density is lower, and the battery is immediately in its thermal “sweet spot” without needing long warm-up periods.

But beware of extreme heat: When the thermometer climbs above 35°C, energy consumption rises slightly again. This isn’t just because of the air conditioning, but because the active battery cooling system has to work overtime.

Our expert advice: If you’re at a high-power charger (HPC) on a very hot day, don’t be surprised by a loud fan noise. That’s the chiller cooling the battery to keep charging speeds stable. To support the system, try to charge in the morning or evening during summer – it protects the battery and saves you time.
