Is standard charging a good thing?

Is standard charging on the Volvo EX90 worth it? With a slower charging speed, it can be gentler on the battery and better suited for overnight charging at home. But, if you’re frequently on long trips, faster options might make more sense.

Standard charging can definitely be worth it, especially if you’re mostly charging overnight at home. Since it’s gentler on the battery, it could help maintain battery health in the long run. But if you’re planning to take long trips regularly, a faster charging option would be more convenient. Maybe consider a balance: use standard charging for regular at-home use and fast charging only when you’re on the go or need a quick top-up! Hopefully public fast-charging stations pop-up nearby your place or at work.

I like the idea of balancing standard charging for everyday use and using faster charging when needed on trips. I just hope more fast-charging stations will pop up around town to make things easier when I’m on the go.

I don't doubt at all this will happen. EV space is evolving constantly. They have to create a good network and infrastructure. There is a lot of demand in the market.

You're right, EV infrastructure is growing fast, and the demand is pushing development forward. As more stations pop up, long trips and daily use will get easier..
