EV CHARGING LEVELS AND FINDING A CHARGING STATION - QUICK START

 Important Note About Charging:

Charging your battery to 80% for daily use helps promote battery health and optimal regenerative braking performance. For longer trips, you can adjust your charge above 80% for extended range. Consumers should see their Owner’s Manual for more information.

There Are Three Types of Electric Vehicle Charging:

Level 1: The slowest level of charging that can be done at any standard 3-prong (120V) outlet. It’s best used as a last resort option in an emergency situation or to “top off” after short trips. Adds up to 3.5 miles of range per hour of charging (for model year 2024 AWD and RWD models).

 

Level 2: Faster than Level 1. Requires a 4-prong (240V) wall outlet or 240V hardwired charging unit installed by a professional electrician. Level 2 charging is the most frequently used type of charging for EV drivers.

Depending on your home charging equipment and vehicle equipment, Level 2 charging can add up to:

21 miles of range per hour (mph) (7.7 kW charging unit, MY24 AWD and RWD).

31 miles of range per hour (mph) (11.5 kW charging unit, MY24 AWD and RWD).

51 miles of range per hour (mph) (19.2 kW charging unit, MY24 AWD and RWD).

DC Fast Charging: Fastest charging available, done at public DC Fast Charging stations when away from your home charging location. Adds up to 77 miles of range in 10 minutes of charging (for both model year 2024 MY23 AWD and RWD models).

In the Charging app settings, start DC Fast Charging Battery Conditioning to precondition your battery when you are on your way to a public DC fast charging station. This will help bring the battery to an optimal temperature for improved charging performance. The longer you precondition the battery, the better your charging performance will be.
