Arnold Clark Charge is Scotland’s largest fast-charging network

Arnold Clark Charge states that it has become Scotland’s largest ultra-rapid EV charging network, with more than 50 public hubs nationwide. Backed by a £30 million investment, the network is expanding across the UK and offers up to 150 kW.

Each hub provides up to 12 ultra-rapid chargers with power outputs of up to 150 kW, allowing drivers to add significant range in a short time and continue their journeys with minimal disruption. The company emphasises that all 50 locations throughout Scotland are open to the public.

The network is less than a year old. It was first introduced in 2024 as part of a £30 million investment by Arnold Clark, the UK’s largest independently owned, family-run car retailer, and has since expanded rapidly across the country. As part of a wider rollout strategy, Arnold Clark Charge is also expanding into key locations across the UK. The aim is to support both long-distance electric vehicle travel and the charging needs of local communities, strengthening access to high-power charging infrastructure beyond Scotland.

Pricing is positioned at the lower end of the ultra-rapid market, the company states. Specifically, Arnold Clark Charge offers charging at 55 pence per kilowatt-hour. Payments can be made via the Arnold Clark app, through roaming partners, or using contactless payment at all charging hubs.

Pablo Levi, Group Sustainability Manager at Arnold Clark, said: “With Arnold Clark Charge, our aim is to give drivers quick, reliable and affordable charging wherever they travel. Becoming Scotland’s largest ultra-rapid network in such a short time is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of – and we’re only just getting started. We’ll continue expanding into key locations and listening to customer feedback to deliver the best possible charging experience.”
