Charging of the electric car

Please note that electric cars can be found in Lithuania and Estonia.

Lithuania:

Make sure the car is unlocked.
Open Charger socket cover on the car which is next to the driver’s door (in the case of the VW e-Crafter electric van) or behind the rear door (in the case of light electric vehicles). If the cover does not open, click “Unlock” on the car key.
In case of charging the vehicle at the “IgnitisON” or “ElintaCharge” fast charging station:
1. Use the right-most charging wire (“Type 2”) that is already connected to the charging station.
  
  Attention: Wire configurations may vary in some charging stations, so you can only find a Type 2 or “CCS” type wire.
2. Take the car keys and find the charging token attached (there are two tokens: one for “IgnitisON” and one for “ElintaCharge”).
3. Approach the charging station and scan the charging token.
4. Choose the charging slot (“Pasirinkite jungtį”) by pressing a button next to the shown option.
5. Press the button “Pradėti” to start charging.
In case of charging the vehicle at a 2-slot “ElintaCharge” station:
1. Take the charging wire from under the middle seat of a CityBee car:
  
  • In the case of the VW e-Crafter electric van – under the front center seat.
  
  • In the case of a passenger car – to the spare wheel space in the trunk.
  
  2. Put one side of the charger wire in the car electric socket and another side into the charging station.
  
  3. Scan the RFID token with “ElintaCharge” written on it.
  
  4. The word “Charging” should start lightning, which means the vehicle is being charged.
Check the car’s charging socket (the green light should be lightning; if there is an orange light or no light at all, it means that the car is not being charged) and the information screen behind the steering wheel (it should indicate that the car is being charged with an indicated time left until fully charged).

Estonia:

Make sure the car is unlocked
Open the charger socket cover, which is located behind the rear door. If the cover does not open, click “Unlock” on the car key.
Charging the vehicle in ‘Eleport’ charging station:

Take the ‘Eleport’ charging card from the sun visor and tap it on the screen
Select either ‘CCS’ or ‘Type 2’ charging option and connect it to the car
Press ”start charging” to start the charging process

To make sure the car is charging, check the charging port to see, if there is a green light.

Why I cannot go faster than 90 km/h with VW e-Crafter (In Lithuania only)?

Please note that this service is provided in Lithuania only.

As this vehicle is intended for city use, it is not equipped with a high-mileage battery. Therefore, if you are planning to go outside the city, a speed limited at 90 km/h ensures that the car does not use too much energy while driving. This way, You will safely reach the nearest electric charging station.

What is the amount of the BeeChill fee?

What happens if I exceed the duration or distance allocated for a single trip in my CityBee subscription plan?

If you exceed the maximum allotted time or distance during a trip, standard CityBee per-minute and per-kilometer rates will apply according to the pay-as-you-go pricing for the selected car model. Immediately after your trip, you will receive an invoice via email detailing the additional charges for extra kilometers and/or minutes. This amount will be charged to the payment card linked to your CityBee account.

If, for any reason, the additional charges cannot be deducted from your payment card and a debt is incurred, you will not be able to start a new trip until the outstanding balance is settled.
