Where is the car charging port located?
1 Answers
Different cars have their charging ports in different locations. 1. Right rear side: BMW places the charging port on the right rear side of the vehicle. The charging port of BMW's first pure electric vehicle, the i3, is located at the right rear of the vehicle. In many European countries, public charging stations are on the right side of the vehicle. Placing the charging port at the rear of the vehicle near the power battery saves materials and costs. 2. Left front side: Similar to Ford and General Motors, BMW's plug-in hybrid charging port is located on the left front side of the vehicle. All of Ford's electric vehicles, whether pure BEVs or PHEVs, have their charging ports on the left front side of the vehicle. 3. Front center: Other manufacturers like Nissan and Audi use the area above the front bumper and grille as their charging port location. Several electric vehicles under Audi's parent company, Volkswagen Group, also adopt the front-center plug design. 4. Left rear side: All Tesla models place the charging port on the left rear side of the vehicle. The charging ports for Model S and Model X are integrated into the rear taillight lenses.
