Smart Charging
What is Smart Charging?
Smart Charging is an intelligent feature that helps you charge your vehicle in the most cost-effective way.
After you share your home energy tariff, the time you need your vehicle ready, and your desired battery level, Smart Charging creates a personalised charging schedule. It automatically charges your vehicle at the best times to help lower your energy costs, while still ensuring it’s ready when you need it.
How does Smart Charging work?
Once you’ve entered your home energy tariff, the time you need your vehicle ready, and your desired battery level, Smart Charge takes care of the rest. It creates a personalised charging schedule that aims to minimise your charging costs while ensuring your vehicle is charged to your preferred level on time.
When you plug in, Smart Charge begins with a short 15-minute charging session to assess the available charging speed and power. After this, it prioritises charging during your off-peak tariff window to reduce costs, and intelligently manages any remaining charge outside of that window to ensure your vehicle is ready when you need it.
Why should I use Smart Charging instead of regular charging?
Smart Charging helps you ensure you reach your preferred battery charge level, and inteligently prioritises your off-peak charging schedule. You don't need to remember when to plug in or unplug your vehicle; simply let us know when you will need it, plug it in, and we’ll take care of the rest.
This allows you to ensure you always have enough battery, without relying only on a shorter off-peak window.
What do I need to use Smart Charging?
To set up Smart Charging, you will need a Toyota electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV), your own Toyota HomeCharge wallbox. The MyToyota app is also essential for setting up and managing this feature.
What if I need to charge immediately? Can I override Smart Charging?
Yes, you can override Smart Charging at any time via the MyToyota App. This allows your vehicle to begin charging immediately, bypassing any existing schedules or restrictions.
Once you unplug the vehicle, Smart Charging will automatically reactivate, and your next charge will be optimised as usual. If you'd prefer to pause Smart Charging for more than one session, you can also disable it directly within the app.
Please note: Charging outside of your optimised schedule, especially during peak tariff times, may result in higher charging costs.

Shelbourne Motors Limited trading as Shelbourne Motors Portadown, Shelbourne Motors Nissan, Shelbourne Motors Newry, and Fleet4u is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Shelbourne Motors Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase. Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
