How long does it take to fully charge a Volkswagen ID.3?

I'm planning on purchasing a Volkswagen ID.3 and was wondering how long it typically takes to fully charge the battery? I plan to mostly charge it at home, but would like to know how long it would take at a public charging station as well.

It depends on the type of charger you're using and the size of the battery. At home with a standard 220/240V outlet, it can take up to 9 hours for a full charge. With a level 2 charger, it can take around 4 hours. At a public fast-charging station, you can get up to an 80% charge in just 30 minutes.

I recommend investing in a level 2 home charger for faster charging times. It may be more expensive upfront, but it will save you time in the long run. Also, make sure to plan your trips wisely so you have enough range to get to your destination and back before needing to charge.

In my experience, it's always best to top off your battery whenever you can. Even if you don't need a full charge, it's better to have a little extra range. Plus, with improved technology and more fast-charging options, it's becoming easier to charge on the go.
