Charging FAQs

  • Q How long does it take to charge an EV?

    Charging times vary depending on the type of charger, battery size, and current charge level. With a DC fast charger, charging can take as little as 20 minutes, while standard AC charging may take several hours.

  • Q How often do i need to charge an Electric vehicle?

    Charging frequency will depend on your daily driving habits. Some people prefer to top up each night, whereas, some may fully charge the vehicle when the battery is low. Our recommendation is to maintain battery charge between 20%-80% to help reduce wear and extend the battery's life span.

  • Q How much does it cost to charge an Electric Vehicle in Australia?

    Factors like electricity rates, time-of-use pricing, and the efficiency of your EV all play a role in charging costs. Charging overnight during off-peak hours can significantly lower expenses, especially if your utility offers discounted EV rates.

  • Q What is the difference between a Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 charger?
    • Level 1 chargers use a standard household outlet (240-volt AC) and are the simplest to use but charge your electric vehicle quite slowly.
    • Level 2 chargers require installation by a licensed professional and use a dedicated 240-volt single or three-phase AC electrical circuit. These chargers provide much faster charging times, and offer a wide range of charging speeds depending on a number of factors.
    • Level 3 chargers, also known as DC fast chargers, are usually found in public charging stations. They can charge an EV much faster than Level 1 or Level 2 chargers, adding hundreds of kilometres of range in under an hour.
  • Q What's the difference between AC and DC charging?

    Alternating Current (AC) charging uses standard household electricity. Direct Current (DC) charging delivers electricity directly to the battery, allowing much faster charging. DC fast chargers are typically found at public or commercial charging stations due to their higher power requirements.

  • Q Where can I find more information on charging solutions?

    Any authorised Geely Dealership can provide you with detailed guidance on charging solutions to suit your preferences and lifestyle from public charging (AC & DC) to home chargers including turn-key installations as well as cable accessory option such as Mode 2, Mode 3 and V2L.
