BYD Europe and Shell EV Charging Solutions said they would provide “at least 100,000” of the Chinese BEV and PHEV maker’s customers in Europe with Shell Recharge network platinum membership which offers discounted charging at fast and ultra fast DC charging locations.

BYD EV owners would have access to 300,000 charge points across Europe through Shell’s growing network at its fuel stations, mobility hubs, destination, and on-street locations and also to what was claimed to be one of Europe’s largest roaming networks.
