AC charging is the recommended charging mode as it maintains the condition of the battery over time. This is the type of charging you are using when you are charging from a charging station, from a charging point at home or from a regular household socket. However, using a household socket is not recommended for regular use and is only suitable for occasional charging.
DC charging is available at certain charging stations and charges your car faster than AC charging. DC charging can be used when you need to recharge your battery immediately.
