CHARGING TIPS

Knowledge for the road ahead

Get smart about charging to save time and energy, and enjoy all the benefits electric vehicle ownership has to offer.

HEV

Install a home AC charger

An at-home dedicated AC wall charger (Mode 3) is a convenient way to ensure a fully charged vehicle while prolonging the vehicle’s battery life. Ask your local Dealer about installing one via JET Charge[C11] at an additional cost[M1].

HEV

Charge during off-peak hours

For Mode 2 and 3 home charging, your power usage will be reflected on the electricity bill from your energy provider. Reduce it and save by choosing off-peak times to charge your vehicle, to receive a lower rate.

HEV

Limit fast charging

It is recommended to use AC charging options when they are available. Frequent use of DC fast charging can impact battery performance and durability.

HEV

Manage charging speed

The last 20% capacity of a lithium-ion battery takes much longer to charge, so you can get more power in less time by charging to 80% and stopping there. Even if it means you need to charge sooner or more often.
