One of the most common reasons car buyers give for not choosing an EV is the vehicles’ long charging times.
The type of EV charger you use — Levels 1, 2, or 3 (also known as “direct current fast chargers,” or DCFCs) — plays a huge role in charging speed. The higher the level, the greater the charger’s output, which typically equates to a faster charge.
While we may be able to speed up charging by improving lithium-ion batteries, we may also be able to accelerate it — and enjoy other benefits — by using new types of batteries in our EVs. Solid-state batteries are one of the most promising alternatives.
