If you’re thinking about buying an electric Genesis vehicle, there is a good chance that you have questions about how to keep it powered. Unlike a gas-powered car that is pretty easy to fuel up, things are a little different with an EV. Here Jenkins Genesis of Ocala aims to answer common questions about Genesis EV charging.
Can I Charge My EV with a Regular Home Outlet?
The short answer to this question is yes. However, a 120-volt outlet – which is the typical type of outlet found in homes – is not very powerful. At most, it will probably only add about five miles of driving range to your vehicle per hour.
Is There a Way to Boost Energy at Home?
Fortunately, there are things to do to add more power to your vehicle. First, you could have a 240-volt outlet installed. This will add a lot more miles per hour, and a battery can typically be fully charged in under 10 hours. You could also have your own charging station installed in your garage or on your driveway to make things more convenient.
How Do I Keep My Vehicle Charged Away from Home?
Right now, there are many public stations in our area, and more are being created all the time. These utilize Level 3 charging and power up a battery quickly. In many cases, these can add up to 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes and usually can fill up the battery in under an hour.
