Charging time

The following charging times are approximate and are applicable when air conditioning or any other consumer is not affecting charging. Charging time may also vary depending on battery size. If charging time seems long, it should be investigated.

 Note

To reduce the charging time for fast charging in cold weather, the battery needs to be preconditioned, which is done by adding a fast charging station as a destination in Google Maps.

 Note

  • It may take longer to charge the high voltage battery in cold or hot weather. Part of the charging current is then used to heat/cool the high voltage battery.
  • Charging station limitations may mean that it takes longer to charge the high voltage battery.
  • If preconditioning is selected, the charging time may be affected.
  • Fast charging at up to 200 kW9 power output is possible in good conditions for high voltage battery and charging station. The charging power is limited towards the end of fast charging.
  1. 1 Applies to charging using a 200-240 V socket.
  2. 2 Maximum charging current may vary depending on market.
  3. 3 The maximum charging power that the car can achieve is 11 kW.
  4. 4 From 0-100 %
  5. 5 Maximum power that the charging station can supply.
  6. 6 Applies at 10-80% State Of Charge (SoC), provided that the temperature of the battery is approximately 35 °C (95 °F).
  7. 7 Maximum power 135 kW.
  8. 8 Maximum power 205 kW.
  9. 9 Charging power may vary depending on battery variant and market.
