How to Charge Your EV at Home

Recharge Your Electrified Vehicle at Home

Driving an electric vehicle comes with a variety of benefits and boons, but one of the most exciting things about going green is the convenience around recharging your vehicle. You can recharge your electrified vehicle at home, meaning that you don't need to venture out to a gas station to get the fuel you need. All you need to do is plug in, wait a little while for the battery to recharge, and hit the road again. How do you recharge your EV at home? It's easy, and our team of experts can walk you through the options available to you here at our dealerships serving Los Angeles.

Recharge with a Standard Outlet

One of the options available to you for at-home charging is plugging your electric vehicle into a standard outlet. You plug your car into an outlet the same way that you would plug in a television, so it's an easy way to recharge your vehicle. The downside is that plugging your car into a standard outlet is slow, so it's likely to be a less convenient option if you frequently find yourself behind the wheel. Fortunately, there are faster options available to help you get the charging power you need.

Speed Things Up with Level 2 Charging

If you're looking for a faster recharging option, you can have a Level 2 charger installed at your home. This is the option that most electric vehicle drivers tend to go for because it offers faster charging times and is generally more convenient for everyday driving. You can have a Level 2 charger installed in your home by a professional electrician and get the charging power you need for your adventures around California.
