New InstaVolt EV charging site now live in Harlow!
We’ve launched a new ultra-rapid charging hub at McDonald’s Harlow – bringing eight 160kW chargers to Essex, all powered by 100% renewable energy.
With two accessible bays and convenient roadside location, it’s designed for commuters, local drivers and anyone passing through. Plus, the on-site McDonalds means you can charge up while you grab some food or a coffee.
Site details:
8 x 160kW chargers – power up and get back on the road in as little as 20 minutes
Two accessible bays – for easier access for EV drivers and wider vehicles
Prime location – McDonalds, London Road, Hastingwood, Harlow, CM17 9LH
On-site McDonald’s – enjoy a meal or hot drink while you charge
Availability – Open 24/7 for round-the-clock charging
Reliability – Industry-leading uptime and 24/7 support
Convenience – Contactless payment with major debit and credit cards, Apple Pay, Android Pay, American Express, and roaming cards
Smart features – Use the InstaVolt app to track charging history, locate stations and earn rewards
As part of InstaVolt’s ongoing sustainability commitment, every charge is powered by clean, renewable energy, helping to reduce emissions while you stay on the move.
InstaVolt app and InstaVolt RFID card users can take advantage of lower charging rates between 8pm and 7am – ideal for an evening top-up while you’re out and about.
