I’m looking at EVs or PHEVs and was wondering what I need at home. I know I can charge with a standard 110 outlet, but what about a 220? Would I be able to charge directly from it or do I have to get a charger installed?

Thank you

    A level 1 (110) EVSE usually comes with the car, and those sometimes have comparability with level 2 (220) via an interchangeable plug adapter.

    This is a bit of a broad statement. About half of EVs (and since Tesla is one of them, about 75% of total cars) don’t come with any EVSE by default without an extra charge.
