What EV Charger Do I Need?

Choose your car to see its charge port, the circuit for full-speed home charging, and the chargers that fit.

Turn on JavaScript to use the finder. Our charger guide covers the same information.

How to choose a home charger

Match three things: the connector to your car's port, the charger's output to your car's onboard charger, and the circuit to what your panel can spare. Then decide on hardwired or plug-in, indoor or outdoor, and whether you want app scheduling for off-peak rates.

The finder uses verified ratings from our vehicle guides and manufacturer specs from our charger guides. For a side-by-side look, see the charger comparisons. If two EVs share the garage, a charger with power sharing or load management can split one circuit.

Check your panel too

A full-speed circuit only helps if your panel can carry it. Try the panel capacity checker for a quick screen.

Charger finder questions

How does the finder choose the circuit size?

It takes your car's onboard charger rating, caps it at 48 amps for most cars or 80 amps for cars that accept more, and sizes the breaker at 125 percent of that, the continuous-load rule in the electrical code. A 48 amp charger needs a 60 amp circuit.

Why are some chargers marked slower?

A charger rated below what your car accepts still works, but charges at the charger's maximum instead of your car's. That can be perfectly fine if it refills your daily driving overnight.

Does the finder count adapters?

No. It matches chargers whose own connector fits your car's port. Adapters vary by automaker, and some only work for DC fast charging, so check your automaker's guidance before relying on one at home.
