Charge Anytime not compatible with the Volvo XC40 2022 but is with the 2019-2021 models?

The list says XC40 (2019-2021 only), I’ve got a 2022 Volvo XC40, its the same surely (except minor body panel) from the previous years all the charging and electrics are the same, motors etc.

Is this a mistake and it should be included, if not when can we expect support if there is some minor difference?

I tried selecting 2021 but it couldn’t find my vehicle when the app contacted volvo.. :(

Hi @grazzer356 and thanks for the post. 

 

Our compatibility with specific models is changing all the time! This model has become compatible since it’s original post.🚘

 

There are now two ways you can get Charge Anytime:

 

You must have an eligible EV or Smart Charger, we’re constantly looking into ways to broaden eligibility of this product so if your technology isn’t currently on this list keep an eye on our page for updates! 

 

Do you have an eligible smart charger?

Am I interpreting the Charge Anytime correctly?  I can use my XC40 Recharge 2023 with Charge Anytime if I have an ‘Indra Smart Charger V3’, right?

Yup! You can connect the Charger in this case and recharge ANY EV with it. Make sure to set it up via MyOVO rather than the Charge Anytime app.

    Hi @grazzer356 and thanks for the post. 

     

    Unfortunately we don't yet have compatibility with the Volvo XC40 2022 or 2023 models just yet.


    We're working in the background to make these compatible, although we don't have an estimate as to when we'll support these model years at the moment.

     

    Do you have an eligible smart charger?

    Hi Tim - we are now 3 months down the line since you answered responded saying you are working in the background to make these compatible. Can you update and provide any estimates please. 

     

    I have a Volvo C40 with no driveway, so have to use a granny cable. Your tariff is perfect for me and I want to become a customer of yours (like many other I suspect), so can only hope the compatibility issue is sorted soon.

     

    Thanks in advance.
