Charging times
The time it takes to charge your car depends on the charging type and several factors. The charging times mentioned are approximate.
Some examples of factors that can affect the charging time are:
- preconditioning
- ambient temperature
- battery temperature
- charging equipment
- battery size
- battery condition and car condition
- infrastructure
- charging settings such as amperage limit.
AC charging from a household socket[1]
AC charging at a charging station or from a charging point at home
If your charging point at home is equipped with load balancing and can handle more than 6A, you need to set a charge limit that matches the maximum current that the charging point can provide. You can set the charge limit in the charging view.Tip
DC charging at a charging station
The battery can charge the fastest when the battery level is low. After reaching 30%, the maximum charging speed gradually decreases as the battery level increases.Note
When you use Google Maps to set a fast-charging station as your destination, the car preconditions the battery to improve charging performance once you get there.Tip
