At Heidebreicht Chevrolet, we understand that purchasing an electric vehicle (EV) isn’t just about making At Heidebreicht Chevrolet, we know that choosing an electric vehicle (EV) is not just an eco-friendly decision; it’s also about adopting a smarter, more efficient way to drive. If you’re considering making the switch to an EV, one key factor to think about is how you’ll charge your vehicle. We’re here to help you understand the charging options available for the Chevrolet Equinox EV, Blazer EV, and Silverado EV, so you can make the best choice for your needs.
Level 1 Charging: This method uses a standard 120-volt household outlet and the portable charging cord that comes with your vehicle. While it’s convenient and can be used almost anywhere, it charges your EV slowly, typically adding only a few miles of range per hour.
Level 2 Charging: This requires a 240-volt outlet (like the ones used for larger appliances) or hard-wiring, and it charges your EV much faster. However, it must be installed professionally. Level 2 charging provides more power, adding significantly more range per hour compared to Level 1.
For a clearer picture of how these two options compare in terms of voltage, charging speed, and range added per hour, visit the Chevrolet home-charging page. This will help you decide which charging method best fits your lifestyle.
