How much current the battery receives during a given time – the so-called charging rate – depends on several things, including which electric car you have, what kind of charging station you use, the battery temperature and the car’s battery level.
It is always the car that determines how much power it can receive. It is the car’s battery management system that determines the charging speed – this is to protect the battery.
Example: An electric car that does not charge at a higher output than 50 kW can therefore not get more than 50 kW – even if the charger has a maximum output of 400 kW.
All our charging stations are marked with maximum power. Be aware that even if your electric car can handle an output of 150 kW, the output will never be higher than what the charger’s labeling indicates.
