Supermarket giant Lidl plans to reshape electric car charging, as it has the retail sector, after opening its first own-brand electric car charging station in France.
The site, near Lyon, offers 360kW charging at a competitive €0.40 (35p) per kWh. BMW- and Ford-backed Ionity charges €0.69 (60p) per kWh to charge at 350kW in France. The Lidl ‘e-station’ also offers 90kW and 180kW charging for €0.40
