How to Use the EV Charging Calculator?

Use this calculator to estimate the charging time, cost, and range of your electric vehicle (EV). Enter the battery capacity, current charge, target charge, charging level, and other details to get accurate estimates.

Key Insights:

• Charging Time – Estimate how long it will take to charge your EV.
• Charging Cost – Calculate the estimated cost of charging based on electricity rates.
• Driving Range – Determine how much range you gain from the charge.

Explanation of Key Fields

• Battery Capacity (kWh): The total energy storage capacity of the EV battery.
• Current Charge (%): The current battery percentage before charging.
• Target Charge (%): The desired battery percentage after charging.
• Charging Level: The type of charger used (Level 1, Level 2, DC Fast, or custom power input).
• Charging Power (kW) by Level:
  • Level 1 (120V): Typically provides around 1.9 kW of power.
  • Level 2 (240V): Typically provides around 7.2 kW of power.
  • DC Fast Charging: Can provide 50 kW or more, significantly reducing charge time.
• Custom Charger Power (kW): The power rating of the charger, if using a custom input.
• Cost per kWh (INR): The electricity rate per unit of energy consumed.
• Charging Efficiency (%): The efficiency factor of the charging process (typically around 90%).
• Miles per kWh: The estimated range your EV can travel per unit of energy consumed.
