What is the charging method for the Geely Jiaji?
2 Answers
Geely Jiaji offers the following charging methods: 1. Method one: Use a standard plug socket with a rated current not exceeding 16A to charge directly at home, which takes approximately 8-10 hours for a full charge. Household three-pin sockets come in two specifications: 10A and 16A, with the 16A plug and socket being larger in size. 2. Method two: Use an AC charging pile for charging. This method involves charging the electric vehicle directly on an AC power grid with higher current using a charging pile, taking about 4 hours. The power of slow charging piles is typically 3.5kW and 7kW, depending on the rated input power of the vehicle's onboard charger. 3. Method three: Use a DC charging pile for charging. This method connects the electric vehicle to an AC or DC power grid using a DC power supply device with control guidance functionality. Generally, only pure electric vehicles are equipped with DC charging capability, commonly referred to as 'fast charging'.
Last year, I bought a Geely Jiaji PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), and charging it has been quite convenient. It uses a standard charging cable that can be plugged into a household 220V socket. I installed a charging station in my garage, and it usually takes about 8 hours to fully charge. If I need a quicker charge, I can go to a public charging station, which offers DC fast charging—it can charge up to 80% in just 30 minutes, making it especially handy for weekend road trips. The car also features a scheduled charging function; I usually plug it in at night, and by morning, it's fully charged, saving both time and electricity. After using it for over a year, the battery has had no issues. Just a reminder: avoid exposing the charging port to rain or impacts while charging—safety first. This car offers great value for money, and the charging cost is much cheaper than refueling, saving me a significant amount each month.
