… and get their cars washed for free while they’re at it.

This promotion runs until the end of 2021, and includes complimentary rapid DC charging for up to 2 hours.

Where

Audi Centre Singapore, 281 Alexandra Road (up to 50kW DC charging)
Monday to Friday: 8am to 6pm
Saturday to Sunday: Closed

Audi Service Centre, 55 Ubi Road 1 (up to 120kW DC charging)
Monday to Friday: 8am to 6pm (last slot for booking is at 4pm)
Saturday: 8am to 12.30pm (last slot for booking is at 10.30am)
Sunday: Closed


How

Call 6366 2323 at least one day in advance to book a charging slot. Then, simply pull up to one of these two pre-arranged locations at the appointed time and charge away. High-speed charging means being able to fully charge an e-tron from empty in less than 2 hours.

Why

This is in addition to the benefits already enjoyed by customers who purchase their Audi e-tron from Premium Automobiles - an integrated charging solution offered in collaboration with SP Group, which includes the installation of an AC charger where possible, and up to 18 months of free charging at all SP Group public charging networks.

One of the most common reasons local drivers cite about their reluctance to switch to an Electric Vehicle (EV) is the lack of charging infrastructure. Also, fast charging beyond 50kW DC is still a rarity so early adopters have to put up with relatively long charging periods which makes them less convenient than Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cars.

Therefore, these efforts are part of Audi’s progressive sustainability roadmap to drive greater adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), especially in Singapore.

As the range of e-tron models has grown to four, the introduction of free charging and car wash services can only make the prospect of Audi EV ownership more compelling than ever.
