Chevrolet EV Home Charging Time Estimator
Estimate charging time from energy needed and charger power. Actual charging speed varies with vehicle capability, charger output, temperature, battery condition, and charging curve.
About the Chevrolet EV Home Charging Time Estimator
Charging time depends on energy needed and charger power. The Chevrolet EV Home Charging Time Estimator estimates charging time from battery capacity, current and target state of charge, charger power, and charging efficiency.
Use it to plan home charging sessions and size a home charger.
Formula used
energy to add = battery capacity x (target SoC - current SoC) / 100
efficiency-adjusted energy = energy to add / (efficiency / 100)
estimated time (hours) = adjusted energy / charger powerHow to use
- Enter battery capacity, current and target state of charge.
- Enter charger power in kW and charging efficiency.
- Click Calculate to see energy and estimated time.
Limitations
Actual charging speed varies with vehicle capability, charger output, temperature, battery condition, and charging curve. Charging tapers near full.
Frequently asked questions
Why does charging slow down near full?
Battery management systems reduce charge rate to protect the battery at high state of charge.
What efficiency should I use?
85 to 90 percent is typical for AC home charging.
