How pricing works here

Time-of-use pricing: the rate depends on the clock. Charging is cheaper off-peak and costs more during peak hours.

  • 00:00–04:00: Tesla NZ$0.60, others NZ$0.81
  • 04:00–21:00: Tesla NZ$0.69, others NZ$0.93
  • 21:00–24:00: Tesla NZ$0.60, others NZ$0.81

The data also holds a plain fallback rate. It isn't the headline, because the published schedule above takes precedence.

Idle / congestion fee: NZ$1.00/min once the car is done charging and the site is busy.
