Some examples of factors that can affect the charging time are:
- preconditioning
 - ambient temperature
 - battery temperature
 - charging equipment
 - battery size
 - battery condition and car condition
 - infrastructure.
 
Charging from a household socket1
Important
Volvo strongly advises against AC charging of 100–120 V in combination with an amperage under 10 A.
Charging at a charging station or from a charging point at home
DC charging at a charging station
Tip
When you use Google Maps to set a fast-charging station as your destination, the car preconditions the battery to improve charging performance once you get there.
