How long do EVs take to charge?
EVs – General
As technology changes and more EVs hit the market, charging times are decreasing significantly. Entry-level chargers supplied with EVs can take up to 30 hours to full charge a vehicle; this timeframe reduces to overnight with higher capacity chargers. We recommend talking with your dealer on the estimated charging time, to consider if a higher capacity charger at extra cost is a worthwhile investment
Public or roadside chargers can be much faster – often providing 120km of charge capacity within 45 minutes depending on what vehicle you have. These can be convenient for leaving to charge while you have an appointment, shopping or work to attend to.
Super-charge stations – dotted across the populous parts of Australia – can add up to 300 kilometres of range in just 10 to 15 minutes.
