How Do You Charge a Chevy EV?

Keeping a gas-powered car fueled up is easy enough that most of us don’t give it a second thought. However, if you’re considering a Chevy EV, thinking about charging now will provide you with more confidence in your purchase. In this guide, Phelps Chevrolet covers your options.

Charging at Home with a Regular Outlet

If you have an outlet in your garage or one easily accessible from your driveway, all you need to do with your car is plug it in. However, this isn’t the most practical approach, as a regular 120-volt outlet will only give you a few miles of driving range per hour. If you don’t drive much, this may suit you fine.

Charging at Home with a More Powerful Outlet

To speed up charging time, having a Level 2 charger installed in your home makes more sense. With a 240-volt outlet, you can get your car charged up between 10 and 15 hours. However, It is essential to have an electrician check out your electrical system to ensure it can handle any upgrades.

Charging on the Go with a Public Station

When fueling your EV, your third option is to take it to a public Level 3 DC fast charging station. These stations utilize powerful outlets that get batteries charged up quickly. Overuse can decrease battery life, but when you’re on a longer-distance trip, finding these through the myChevrolet® app keeps your trip humming along.
