How long does it take to charge a new energy vehicle once?
2 Answers
New energy vehicles take 8-10 hours to charge once. Power source of new energy vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources, or use conventional vehicle fuels with new on-board power devices, integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving to form automobiles with advanced technical principles. Classification of new energy vehicles: New energy vehicles include pure electric vehicles, range-extended electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, hydrogen engine vehicles, and other new energy vehicles. License plates for new energy vehicles: The special license plates for new energy vehicles are green with black characters and black borders. The new energy vehicle license plates are gradient green, while large new energy vehicle license plates are yellow-green dual-tone.
I've been driving a new energy vehicle for several years, and charging time mainly depends on the charging method and vehicle model. Using a standard household socket for slow charging, a medium-capacity car like mine with around 40 kWh battery takes over ten hours to fully charge. I usually plug it in at night and wake up to a full charge. Public slow charging stations with higher power, like 7kW, take about 4 to 6 hours. The fastest option is fast charging stations with 150kW power, which can charge to 80% in just half an hour, ideal for long trips. I also make a habit of downloading a charging app to check station availability in advance and avoid queues. Battery capacity is key: smaller cars charge faster, while larger vehicles like SUVs may take longer. Charging speed drops slightly in cold weather, so I recommend using fast charging in summer to save time. Overall, planning your charging habits is very practical.
