AC is the type of electricity that flows through power grids and into homes and businesses, including to power EV chargers. AC can be thought of as "low and slow" charging, while DC is very fast and powerful. DC is the type stored in batteries. Some models (typically from Japan or South Korea) might use a CHAeMo plug.

The simplest recharging option is to plug the charging cable supplied with the car into a conventional 230-volt socket. The battery is then charged from the grid at a power level of 2.3 A completely depleted battery is recharged in this way within nine hours. The battery is then 80% recharged after just 30 minutes.
