Home and destination charging (0 - 100%)
Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Volvo C40. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.
| Charging point | Max. power | Power | Time | Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wall plug (2.3 kW) | 230V / 1x10A | 2.3 kW | 38h 30m | 6 mph |
| 1-phase 16A (3.7 kW) | 230V / 1x16A | 3.7 kW | 24h 0m | 9 mph |
| 1-phase 32A (7.4 kW) | 230V / 1x32A | 7.4 kW | 12h 0m | 19 mph |
| 3-phase 16A (11 kW) | 400V / 3x16A | 11 kW | 8h 15m | 27 mph |
| 3-phase 32A (22 kW) | 400V / 3x16A | 11 kW † | 8h 15m | 27 mph |
| † = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster. | ||||
Rapid charging (10 -> 80%)
Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge (SoC) has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Volvo C40.
| Charging point | Max. power | AVg. power | Time | Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CCS (50 kW DC) | 50 kW † | 49 kW † | 1h 8m | 130 mph |
| CCS (150 kW DC) | 149 kW † | 108 kW † | 0h 31m | 300 mph |
|
† = Limited by charging capabilities of vehicle
Actual charging rates may differ from data shown due to factors like outside temperature, state of the battery and driving style. |
