And how long does it take to recharge to 100% from 10%? I know a truck takes 10 minutes to fill a large tank. And with a level 2 charger it will take 2-3 hours!
No. A level 2 charger will be anywhere from 6 to 12 hours depending on the EVSE and it’s rating.
A level 3 DCFC would probably be closer to 30 to 40 minutes to 90 percent assuming a DCFC CCS machine of 200 kw or more. But this particular Rivian only has the medium sized battery so the long range Rivian will probably be closer to 40 to 50 minutes to 90 percent.
Not an expert. JMHO.
Just remember, the electricity being used for charging more and more, and faster and faster, is being generated by coal and fossil fuels, thus the more EV on the road, the more pollution in the atmosphere. Aren't these wonderful times?
I wouldn’t know. I’m not American. Do you guys really still generate that much power from coal?
Cheers.
