Charging speed and time
Especially in Finnish winter, but also in other seasons, preheating the EV battery is a must to get fast charging. So if possible preheat the battery for 1-2 hours prior arriving to charger, for example by navigating to charger.
- High Power Charging (HPC): 100–350kW, to charge from 10% to 80% takes about 30 minutes if battery is well preheated.
- Quick charging: 50–100kW
- Charging: about 7–22kW, to charge from 10 to 80% takes several hours. For these you often need your own charging cable.
