The fastest charger you can install at home is 7.0 kW to 7.4 kW because it's the limit of standard single-phase electrical supplies, which are standard in almost all residential homes in the UK and globally.
What does that mean in real-time?
With a typical 60 kWh EV battery:
✅ 7.0 kW charger: Around 8.5 hours for a full charge
✅ 7.4 kW charger: Around 8 hours for a full charge
The difference is small, but both options make overnight charging easy for most drivers. The best charger for you depends on your vehicle, home electrical supply and daily driving needs.
