That all depends on the type of charger you have, which can either be slow, fast or rapid.
Slow is rated at 3-6kW and usually will need to be used overnight to reach full charge. Fast is rated at either 7kW or 22kW, and takes between two to five hours for a full charge. Rapid is rated at 50kW, and takes only 40 minutes for an 80% charge.
You can get substantial discounts on brand-new low emission vehicles via a government grant. The maximum grant available for all-electric cars is £3,500 and the amount of the grant will depend on which category the vehicle is in. You can find a list of eligible vehicles here
