Which EV charger suits you best depends on your car. Every electric or hybrid car has its own maximum charging power for home use. Most EVs charge at 11 kW. Some plug-in hybrids stop at 3.7 kW, and a few cars handle 22 kW. That is why Wallbox Discounter has a separate page for every brand, model and version. Pick your car brand below and see which charger fits your car.

How your car's charging power decides your charger

Your car sets the limit at home, not the charger. The onboard charger built into your car caps the speed. With an 11 kW onboard charger you never charge faster than 11 kW, not even on a 22 kW charger. Most fully electric cars charge at 11 kW on a three-phase connection, which uses three live wires instead of one. Many plug-in hybrids charge slower, often around 3.7 kW, because their battery is smaller. A small group of cars, including certain Audi and Renault models, supports 22 kW at home.

Choose a charger that matches the charging power of your car. A charger with a built-in MID meter is worth considering. A MID meter is a certified kWh meter that records exactly how much you charge. It keeps your charging separate from the rest of your household use, so you know what charging at home really costs. Browse all 11 kW EV chargers or the 22 kW EV chargers, depending on what your car handles. If a certified meter matters to you, the EV chargers with a MID meter show which models have one.

Frequently asked questions

What charging power does my car have?

You find it in your car's specifications, usually listed as maximum AC charging power. AC means alternating current, which is what you charge with at home. Most fully electric cars charge at 11 kW at home. Plug-in hybrids are usually slower, around 3.7 kW. A small group handles 22 kW. The model page for your car shows the exact figure, together with matching charger advice.

Why does the right charger differ per car?

Your car decides how fast you charge at home, not the charger. A charger that delivers more power than your car accepts does not charge any faster. You would pay for power you never use. Start from what your car handles and you pick a charger that fits, without overpaying. Choose your car above to see the right advice.
