With EVgo Autocharge+ support, you can start charging your vehicle by plugging into a DC fast charger from EVgo. The EVgo network automatically detects your vehicle and associates its charging with your EVgo account. To enroll in Autocharge+ in the EVgo app, go to Vehicle Autocharge+, and follow the on-screen instructions.

Battery preconditioning strives to minimize DC fast charging time and achieving optimal charging performance by bringing the battery to ideal temperatures while navigating to a DC fast charger. Preconditioning will automatically start when using the Navigation app and routing to a DC fast charger. The system cools or heats based on battery temperature. The time spent preconditioning can vary based on the advertised power of the charger you’re navigating to, and the state of charge with which you may arrive at the DC fast charger.
