To be honest, I've been driving a NIO electric car for a year or two, and the fast charging time is quite flexible. Generally, if you start charging from a very low level, say around 20%, fast charging can get you to about 80% in just half an hour, which is really fast. However, charging to 100% takes longer because once the battery reaches above 80%, the system reduces the charging power to protect the battery from overheating and damage, which might take another half hour or more. I rarely charge to full myself; usually stopping at 80% is enough for daily driving, like commuting to work or going to the supermarket. Only for long trips, such as returning to my hometown, do I choose to charge fully, but I make sure to plan ahead to avoid delays. The charging station's power also affects the time—some high-power chargers can be faster, but I recommend regularly checking the car's battery health, as aging can slow down charging. Overall, it's best to arrange charging flexibly based on the starting battery level.

The fast charging time for NIO vehicles mainly depends on the charging pile capability and battery state. For models with a 100kWh battery like mine, when the DC charging power is sufficiently high, it only takes twenty to thirty minutes to charge from 10% to 80%, which is very smooth. However, once it exceeds 80%, the speed slows down significantly, taking over thirty minutes to charge the remaining 20% due to current limitations to prevent overheating. Additionally, charging time is also affected by temperature; it can be a few minutes slower in cold winters or hot summers. I usually prefer short, partial charges, like just fifty minutes for round trips, to avoid wasting time and damaging battery lifespan by fully charging. Newer cars charge faster, but as the battery degrades over time, charging duration increases. I also make sure to use NIO's own fast charging piles for reliability, avoiding outdated public piles that can cause delays. Before each charge, I check the plug connection to ensure efficiency and speed.

At home, I drive a NIO for taking the kids around, and the fast charging time is quite practical for us. If the battery drops below thirty percent on the road, stopping at a fast charging station for thirty to forty minutes can charge it up to eighty percent, which is perfect for taking a break to eat or use the restroom. A full charge takes over an hour, but I never charge to full—eighty percent is already enough for school runs and shopping trips. On long highway drives, a half-hour fast charge adds hundreds of kilometers, making trip planning convenient. Charging times vary significantly depending on the starting charge level, so don’t be too greedy about charging to full. Additionally, NIO’s battery swap stations are even faster—just two minutes for a fresh battery, making them the go-to in emergencies and saving a lot of time. Normally, charging only takes a fraction of time efficiently.
