Some examples of factors that can affect the charging time are:
- preconditioning
- the car's climate system and other active electrical loads
- 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
Fast charging from a DC 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.
