How Long Does It Take to Charge an Electric Car?

2022 Mazda MX-30 Charging on Street
 

Do sky-high gas prices have you thinking about making the switch to an electric vehicle? Some busy Brooklyn drivers have been hesitant to make that switch because they’re concerned about electric car charging time. How long does it take to charge an electric car like the MAZDA MX-30? EV charging time can be faster and more convenient than you might think, sometimes taking less than a half-hour, depending on the charging method you use. We talk about those different charging methods below.

 

 

How Long Does it Take to Charge an Electric Car at a Public Station?

Fast DC public chargers have been popping up in more and more spots around Staten Island lately. These stations boast the fastest EV charging time. And customers who buy a Mazda MX-30 will get $500 in credits towards public charging. How long does it take to charge an electric car using this method? See below:

Electric Car Charging Time – Public Charging Stations

Fast DC Charging (Level 3)

  • Less than 50 KW per hour
  • Up to 80% charge in 36 minutes

Basic Public AC Charging (240V)

  • Up to 7.4 KW per hour
  • 20% charge per hour

How Long Does It Take to Charge an Electric Car at Your House?

There are two ways to charge a car at home. Most electric vehicles come with a cord that can be plugged into an existing 120V outlet in the house or garage. This is called Level 1 charging and produces the slowest EV charging time. Mazda recommends purchasing a home charging station for much faster charging. In fact, the $500 credit mentioned above can also be used for the purchase of a Chargepoint home electric charger. Here are the charging times for these home methods:

Home Electric Car Charging Time by Charger

Level 1 Home AC Charging (120V)

  • Less than 2 KW per hour
  • 2% per hour
