The Huddersfield Motorstore site is open to all EV drivers, supporting both local users and those travelling longer distances through the region. Drivers using the Huddersfield charging hub will benefit from one of the most competitive ultra-rapid charging rates available, priced at just 55p per kWh – significantly lower than the current UK average of 76p per kWh.

The Huddersfield site is the 63rd to open within the Arnold Clark Charge network. As part of its nationwide rollout, Arnold Clark Charge is expanding into key locations to meet growing demand for reliable, high-speed charging and help reduce barriers to EV adoption.

The ultra-rapid chargers allow drivers to quickly top up their vehicles, minimising downtime and making electric travel more practical for everyday journeys. Payments can be made via the Arnold Clark app, through roaming partners or using contactless payment at the chargers.

In addition to fast and affordable charging, drivers can enjoy a free coffee in-branch while their vehicle charges, adding extra convenience to the experience.

Arnold Clark Charge’s rapid growth and customer-focused approach were recently recognised at the Zapmap 2025 Awards, where the network was named ‘Up-and-Coming Rapid/Ultra-Rapid EV Charging Network’.

“The opening of our new ultra-rapid chargers in Huddersfield is another important step in expanding Arnold Clark Charge across the UK” said Pablo Levi, Group Sustainability Manager at Arnold Clark. “We want to make EV charging as simple, affordable and accessible as possible, whether customers are travelling locally or on longer journeys. By investing in ultra-rapid infrastructure at key locations like this, we’re supporting the transition to electric vehicles while delivering real benefits for drivers and local communities.”
