Public Charging
ChargePoint is an official vehicle-charging partner of Volvo Cars
in North America.
• A ChargePoint Welcome Kit is provided with your vehicle. Please take
the time to review its contents.
• To set up your ChargePoint account, please visit
www.chargepoint.com/drivers/
• With your active ChargePoint account and credit card information
stored, you have several payment methods, including:
- The RFID card, which is included in your vehicle Welcome Kit.
- The ChargePoint mobile app, which is available for both iOS
and Android.
- The in-car app - available in the Google Play Store - which allows
for touchless pay right from your driver’s seat.
How to begin a public charging session:
1. Once in Park, tap your card or phone on the ChargePoint station,
or hit the “Start Charge” button on your mobile app or on your car’s
center screen. This will unlock the charging connector so you can
remove it from the charging station.
2. Plug the connector into your Pure Electric Volvo to start charging.

Interacting with the Google Infotainment Interface
Interacting with the integrated Google services is as easy and familiar
as using your smartphone.
• Google Assistant supports natural speech. Simply say “Hey Google”
or “OK Google” and state your command, from navigation to just about
anything that can be answered by the internet.
• Google can also control some in-car features, such as climate settings
and heated seats and steering wheel.
• Built-in Google Maps provides real-time traffic and public charging
information,* and it can estimate your remaining state of charge before
you set out. Simply set your desired destination in Google Maps and
the system will show you the predicted battery charge level upon arrival.
• Signing into your own Google account provides a personalized
experience, such as directions to work or home, as well as access
to your recent search history in Google Maps from your other signed-
in devices. This makes trip planning very easy. The system will still
function without being signed in with Google.
