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 socket1
AC charging at a charging station or from a charging point at home
Tip
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.
DC charging at a charging station
Note
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.
Tip
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.
