Ultra-fast charging in Italy

Ultra-fast chargers (150–400 kW) are the backbone of long-distance driving; this country counts 670 of them. The largest concentrations: Roma (6), Milano (10), Firenze (1), Bologna (6), Genova (2), Modena (6). On every city page they carry the purple ⚡⚡ label, and the route planner filters on them with one click.

What does charging cost in Italy right now?

Public AC charging currently averages around € 0,58 per kWh; fast and ultra-fast charging averages € 0,79. The spread runs from € 0,40 at the cheapest kerbside chargers to € 0,99 at premium ultra-fast locations. What you actually pay depends on the charger–card combination, so check the live tariff in your charging app before plugging in.

Indicative averages, reference month augustus 2026, based on our periodic sampling of the largest operators' public tariffs.

Practical: charging without surprises

  • Any major European charge card works at virtually every public charger; at new fast chargers (≥50 kW) contactless bank-card payment is increasingly standard (EU AFIR rules).
  • Check the status colours here plus the live tariff in your card app before you drive to a charger.
  • For long trips, plan stops at ultra-fast locations with the route planner and charge from 10 to 80%, above 80% every EV slows down considerably.
  • Cold batteries charge slowly: precondition by setting the charger as your navigation destination.
  • Prefer large charging plazas (8+ points): virtually no queues and more stable power.
