1 Public charging experience can vary based on charger level and other vehicle and environmental conditions.
2 Level 3 - DC (Fast) Charging: DC charging times are estimated based on ideal charging conditions. Charging times will vary based on outside temperature and other factors. As temperatures decrease below 10 degrees Celsius, charging time will increase significantly. For the bZ4X AWD model, charging may slow down more than other models in weather conditions below 0 degrees Celsius and may not be possible when the temperature drops to around -20 degrees Celsius. Drive battery level and condition, charger specifications and DC Charging more than twice per day also can negatively affect charging time.

Installing a dedicated Level 2 charger at your residence can make a lot of sense, especially for BEV owners. These chargers use a 240-volt outlet, the same amount of power used by home appliances like a stove, or HVAC equipment.
There are a number of factors to consider before installing a Level 2 charger. For example, the best location, the type of connector, the length of cord, permanent or portable installation, and amperage.
It is highly recommended that you speak to a certified installer about requirements, including the right plug head, and installation costs. And be sure to check if there are any government rebates in your area for the installation4 of a home charger.

Charge time is dependent on the state of charge of your vehicle. One key factor that affects charging is weather. As the temperature approaches freezing and below, we strongly recommend AC charging. DC Fast Charging times will increase as the temperature drops. For example, at -10 degrees Celsius, DC Fast Charging times can increase by approximately five times. As temperatures drop even further, DC Fast Charging may be considerably longer or not possible. In order to ensure effective charging and preserve battery health over the life of the vehicle DC Fast Charging should be limited to two sessions per day year-round.
