How Fast Can My Electric Vehicle Charge?

Exploring new electric cars opens up an exciting world for drivers who want to eliminate trips to the fuel pump while enjoying a unique acceleration experience. And at Lyon-Waugh Auto Group, we can fill you in on all of the sleek features electric luxury cars have to offer, including how long it takes to charge the electric vehicles we have in stock. 

How Quickly Can Electric Vehicles Charge? 

Since every electric vehicle is different, battery charging speed will vary depending on the specific model. But generally, electric vehicles can reach a full charge overnight, providing more than sufficient range for both daily drives and trips to the next metro area. 

For example, the Audi e-tron electric SUV comes with an at-home charging setup that allows you to achieve a complete charge in 10.5 hours, which gives you 222 miles of range. Similarly, the Jaguar I-PACE electric SUV can reach a full charge in 10.1 hours, giving you 234 miles of range. 

This means that ultimately, you won’t even have to charge your electric car every night. And if you have a quick turnaround time for your next commute, you won’t need the full charging time to get sufficient range for your drives through town.

Quick Charging

If you do find yourself in a pinch and need to expand your driving range quickly, you can access the growing network of DC quick-charging stations. For instance, the Jaguar I-PACE can go from a completely depleted battery to an 80% charge in just 85 minutes at a 50kW DC charging station or just 45 minutes at a 100kW DC station.
