CHARGING TIME AND COST

Volkswagen e-Golf

Choose your version and where to charge. Then calculate charging time and cost with your car already selected.

Set up your charging session

Your version is selected. Choose where to charge.

In the calculator you can change percentages, power, tariff and conditions. For a household socket, ask a qualified professional to check that the installation is suitable for EV charging.

How much does charging cost?

Compare batteries using your tariffs. Initial values of 0.30 and 0.65 €/kWh are examples, not offers or market averages.

Supply energy = usable capacity × charge change ÷ (1 − losses). Costs cover energy only, excluding subscriptions and other charges. Actual losses vary with power, installation and temperature.

Example from 20–80%, with assumed losses of 10%.

Documented historical configuration; this does not indicate current ordering availability.

Internal calculator estimates are not shown as WLTP consumption or range. These data will be added after the exact version is verified.

The source declares 35.8 kWh without specifying net capacity. We explicitly use the declared figure as an approximation: it may overestimate usable energy, time and cost. It is not certified net capacity and no separate gross capacity is inferred. European MY2017 launch release: 35.8 kWh, AC 7.2 and CCS 40 kW. Configuration with CCS; not extended to cars without the option or the earlier 24.2 kWh battery. NEDC figures are not presented as WLTP; a time of under one hour is not treated as an exact reference.

AC charging time from 20–80%

Energy stored in this window is approximately 21.5 kWh. With 10% losses, estimated supply energy is 23.9 kWh.

Simplified estimate: stored energy ÷ 0.90 ÷ effective power. Power is the lower of available power and the version's AC limit. Constant power is assumed: installation, phases, temperature and battery management can extend time. Listed powers are calculation scenarios, not an installation assessment.

Rapid DC charging

No DC time reference with a battery window is reported for this version. Peak kW cannot establish actual time: power varies with battery, temperature and station. The full calculator uses an estimated curve and explains its limits.

How to use these results

A 22 kW AC station cannot exceed the onboard charger limit. For Volkswagen e-Golf, the individual version figures in the table are more useful than the commercial name alone. Also check available power and installation phases.

Estimated cost multiplies supply kWh by your tariff. DC charging follows a curve and cannot be calculated by dividing energy by peak power. Sources and reference windows are listed for each version.
