EV Charging Time Calculator

Calculating the actual time needed to charge your electric vehicle depends on many factors such as the EV’s battery size, the speed of the onboard charger, and the amount of power being supplied to the EV by the charging station to name a few. We’ve simplified it for you! Simply use this intuitive calculator to estimate the time it will take to charge your EV on a Level 2 charger based on your EV model or by defining your charging details.

Charging Time Varies Based On:

• Charging Speed: Measured in kilowatts (kW), higher charging speeds mean faster charging times.

• Battery Capacity: Larger batteries, measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh), take longer to charge.

• State of Charge: Charging is faster when the battery is nearly empty, as it picks up speed as it depletes.

• Charger Type:

  • Level 1: (120 volts) – Slowest, typically adding 2–5 miles of range per hour.
  • Level 2: (240 volts) – Moderate charging, about 10–20 miles of range per hour.
  • DC Fast Charging: (Often over 50 kW) – Fastest, can add a significant amount of range in a short time.
