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; at that power, it goes from 20% to 80% in about 5.5 hours. A more powerful wallbox won't shorten that time — the vehicle sets the limit.
Which HIMS wallbox is it compatible with?
It's compatible with all HIMS wall-mounted and portable devices with a Type 2 socket; the devices recommended below are chosen based on the vehicle's AC limit and phase configuration.
How many minutes does DC fast charging take?
The vehicle's DC peak power is 240 kW. On a 120 kW HIMS DC station, it goes from 10% to 80% in about 34 minutes; the time depends on the battery's charging curve and temperature.
