There are awards decided by committees, by critics, by panels of industry insiders behind closed doors. And then there are awards decided by the people who actually matter — the drivers who wake up every morning, plug in, and trust their charger to do its job. The Autotrader Drivers' Choice Awards are the latter, and that's precisely what makes winning one mean so much.

This year, more than 160,000 UK car owners completed the survey that determines the Drivers' Choice winners across 24 categories. They weren't asked for opinions in the abstract. They were asked about the cars they own, the chargers they live with, and the products they'd recommend to a friend. Across reliability, ease of use, app experience, installation, and overall satisfaction, they chose Hypervolt as the Best Home Charger at the Autotrader Drivers' Choice Awards 2026.

What This Win Means

We say it often at Hypervolt: don't take our word for it. The voice of the customer is everything. It's what drives every engineering decision, every support interaction, every software update pushed in the background so your charger gets better while you sleep. To be voted number one by tens of thousands of real drivers — not by industry insiders, not by algorithms — is the kind of recognition that lands differently. It's the one we work for.

Rory Reid, Autotrader's YouTube Director, put it well: "Home charging remains one of the most important factors in the EV ownership experience, and drivers place huge value on reliability, ease of use and flexibility. Hypervolt's much-deserved win highlights just how much the category is evolving — particularly when it comes to compatibility with a wide range of energy providers and tariffs."

He's right, and that last point matters. The Home 3 Pro isn't just a charger — it's a platform that works with the widest range of energy tariffs and smart integrations available from any home charging product in the UK. Whether you're on Octopus Intelligent, OVO Charge Anytime, EDF, Kraken, or beyond, your Hypervolt finds the cheapest, greenest electrons and does the work for you.

What Hypervolt Said

Flavian Alexandru, Chief Executive Officer at Hypervolt, said:

"We're thrilled to be named Best Home Charger at the Autotrader Drivers' Choice Awards. What makes this recognition so special is that it comes directly from drivers themselves — the people who live with our chargers every day. We've always focused on building a charger that's reliable, simple to use and works seamlessly with the widest possible range of energy tariffs, so to be voted number one by tens of thousands of UK car owners means a huge amount. Thank you to our customers and to the entire Hypervolt team."
