How long does it take to charge an EV on a long journey?
Charging time depends on the charger type:
- Rapid chargers (50kW): Add about 100 miles in 30-40 minutes.
- Ultra-rapid chargers (100kW+): Can add 150-200 miles in 20-30 minutes, depending on your EV.
- Destination chargers (7-22kW): Ideal for overnight charging but take several hours.
- To minimise downtime, aim to charge from 20% to 80%, as charging speeds slow down significantly beyond 80%.
