Hyundai has expanded its Preferred Partner Network to nine additional European markets. The programme is now available in Austria, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Spain, France, Italy, Poland and Slovakia. They join Germany, Norway, Sweden and the UK, where Hyundai launched the Preferred Partner Network in summer 2025.

Charging stations operated by infrastructure providers that are part of the Preferred Partner Network can now be accessed via Charge myHyundai in the nine newly added countries. The main benefit is their integration into the Smart Tariff: customers on this plan receive a 30 per cent discount compared to the Flex Tariff when charging at Preferred Partner locations. At all other charging points, the discount is 10%. The participating charging operators vary by market.

Germany was among the first markets to receive the Preferred Partner Network when Hyundai introduced the programme in summer 2025. In Germany, Charge myHyundai currently lists Ionity, Aral, Shell, Mer, Electra, Pfalzwerke, Allego and Fastned as Preferred Partners. The Smart Tariff costs €9.99 per month in Germany. Customers on this plan receive the applicable Preferred Partner discounts, while the exact charging price is displayed in the app or on the website before each charging session begins. Customers opting for the Flex Tariff pay a one-off activation fee of €7.49 and no monthly subscription. Charging prices vary by operator, and no discounts apply. According to the current price list, both AC and DC charging sessions are billed at €0.59 per kWh.

In Germany, Charge myHyundai also continues to offer optional charging packages for Aral and Ionity. The Aral Light Package costs €4.99 per month and currently reduces the HPC charging price to €0.49/kWh. The Premium Package is priced at €9.99 per month and lowers the rate to €0.39/kWh. According to the current price list, the two packages offer discounts of 35 per cent and 50 per cent, respectively, compared to the Flex Tariff. They also waive the charging session fee that otherwise applies under the Flex Tariff.

Hyundai has also introduced the Ionity Pro Package across all 18 European markets where Charge myHyundai is available. In Germany, customers can now choose between two Ionity packages. The Premium Package costs €6.99 per month and reduces the Flex Tariff rate by €0.25/kWh. The new Pro Package is priced at €11.99 per month after the introductory period and offers a discount of €0.35/kWh compared to the Flex Tariff. Both packages also waive the charging session fee.

New Charge myHyundai customers who register their first battery-electric Hyundai model receive the Ionity Pro Package free of charge for one month. Charging sessions are billed separately at the applicable Ionity Pro rates. The offer is available while stocks last. Unless cancelled, the subscription automatically continues at the regular monthly rate after the free trial period.
