How long does it take to charge an EV? Andres Spagarino Thu, 03/05/2026 - 01:43 Charging time depends on the size of the battery and the type of charger you use: Level 1 (standard 120V outlet at home): Adds about 3 ‒ 5 miles of range per hour or about 40 miles overnight. Level 2 (240V home or public charger): Adds about 14 ‒ 35 miles of range per hour. EV owners can install a Level 2 charger at home for overnight charging and convenience. DC fast charging (public “fast chargers”): Adds 100 ‒ 150+ miles of range in about 30 minutes .
