Charge your electric car in Barcelona
Barcelona is one of the Spanish cities with the highest density of charging points, largely because of its low-emission zone — the ZBE Rondes de Barcelona, one of the largest in southern Europe — and the metropolitan push for electric vehicles. That means plenty of supply, but also many different operators: the municipal network, the points in B:SM car parks, chargers at shopping centres and the fast stations on the Rondes ring roads and the exits along the AP-7 and C-32. Cargea brings that whole network together on a single map with real-time availability, so you can see which point is free, filter by connector and power, check the price, and start and pay for charging from your phone. Whether you drive daily through the Eixample or Gràcia inside the LEZ or head out towards the Maresme or the Costa Brava, you charge with the same app and the same payment method across the whole metropolitan area and beyond.

Rondes de Dalt and Litoral
