Frequently asked questions

How many hours does it take to charge this vehicle at home?

The vehicle's onboard AC charger accepts at most 11 kW. On a three-phase supply, at that power it goes from 20% to 80% in about 4.4 hours; on a single-phase supply the power is at most 7.4 kW, so it takes at least about 6.5 hours. A more powerful charger won't shorten the time — the vehicle and the home supply set the limit.

Which HIMS wall-mounted charging stations and portable chargers can be considered for this vehicle?

HIMS wall-mounted and portable chargers with a Type 2 connection can be considered for this vehicle. Check suitability for the selected model; the devices recommended below have been selected according to the vehicle’s AC charging limit and phase configuration.

How many minutes does DC fast charging take?

The vehicle's DC peak power is 115 kW. On a 120 kW HIMS DC station, it goes from 10% to 80% in about 43 minutes; the time depends on the battery's charging curve and temperature.
