I’m looking at EVs or PHEVs and was wondering what I need at home. I know I can charge with a standard 110 outlet, but what about a 220? Would I be able to charge directly from it or do I have to get a charger installed?

Thank you

    Be sure to check on your car’s charging capabilities though. New Tesla Model 3 RWDs, for example, max out at 32A which is what most 240V plugin chargers can do. Hardwired L2 chargers can usually go higher, but if your vehicle doesn’t support the higher amps then the added cost wouldn’t give you any actual benefit.
