How fast can I charge my EV at home?

The speed at which you can charge your EV at home will depend on the car (the maximum rate of charge it can accept), and the charger. Most homes can charge a car up to 7.4kW - or more simply, overnight whilst you sleep. Cord wallbox EV chargers are 7.4kW and Cord portable EV chargers are 2.3kW.

It can be faster to charge a car using a public charge point as these use a different charging method (DC), typically not available from a home. Use the handy lookup tool on our website to find out how fast you can charge your car here.
