Charging questions

How long does the 2018 Tesla Model 3 take to charge on Level 2 (240V)?
From 10% to full on a Level 2 charger supplying its 11.5 kW onboard maximum, the 2018 Tesla Model 3 (75 kWh battery) takes roughly 7 h 58 min — comfortably an overnight charge. Lower-powered home or public Level 2 units take proportionally longer.
How fast does the 2018 Tesla Model 3 DC fast charge?
The 2018 Tesla Model 3 accepts a peak of about 170 kW on DC fast charging. A 10–80% session at full acceptance takes roughly 21 min. Charging slows above 80%, and real-world speed also depends on battery temperature and the station's own rating.
How far can the 2018 Tesla Model 3 go on a charge?
The 2018 Tesla Model 3 has an EPA-rated range of 310 miles. Real-world range varies with speed, temperature, and load.

Charge times are lower-bound estimates from our shared model (linear to 80%, tapered above, 90% efficiency) using this vehicle's spec data.
