Frequently asked questions
Can a hacked EV charger damage my car?
Direct damage is unlikely, but a compromised charger could disrupt charging, run up costs, or expose your account details and home network.
Should I disconnect the charger from WiFi?
Not necessarily — smart features need WiFi. The priority is changing default passwords and keeping firmware up to date.
Is this a formal cyber audit?
No. It is general guidance for UK EV owners.
