Tips for Choosing a Charging Station
Even if you choose a more powerful charger (such as 11 kW or 22 kW), the Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron will charge at a maximum of 3.7 kW. If you have a three-phase electrical outlet, you might consider installing a more powerful station with future transition to a fully electric vehicle in mind. This will save you from needing a new installation later.
Mobile Charging Devices
Mobile chargers are a convenient and accessible solution for charging at home through a standard outlet. They typically offer power outputs of 2.3 or 3.7 kW. It’s important to ensure that your electrical installation can handle this load and to use certified extension cords if needed.
