Pod Point Solo 3

Who the Pod Point Solo 3 suits

The Solo 3 is the pick if you value simplicity and a familiar brand over advanced energy features. Pod Point is one of the most recognised UK charging names and also runs a large public network, which reassures first-time EV owners who just want something dependable and easy. It doesn’t natively divert solar and has fewer advanced tariff features than some specialists, so power users may prefer a more feature-rich unit.

Key features

• Trusted UK brand, a familiar name with a large public charging network too.
• Simple app for easy scheduling and day-to-day use.
• Tethered or untethered, so you can choose cable convenience or a tidy socket.
• 7kW or 22kW, with a three-phase option for suitable properties.

What to check before you buy

• Do you want simple and familiar? That’s the Solo 3’s appeal — though note its successor, the Solo 3S, adds genuine solar charging.
• Need solar or deep tariff smarts? Consider the solar-first myenergi Zappi or an Ohme.
• Tethered vs untethered: both are available; see which cable style suits you.
