Are you aware that you have two methods to charge your Opel Combo-e Life XL 50 kWh electric vehicle? You can either connect it to a regular wall socket or utilize a charging station. However, when you are on the go, public charging can only be achieved through a charging station. Charging rates differ depending on the type of charging station or Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) employed, as well as your car's maximum charging capacity. Refer to the table below for all available charging options for your Opel Combo-e Life XL 50 kWh, as well as the approximate time needed to charge the battery from empty to full.
Europe
Charging an electric vehicle (EV) in Europe can differ depending on the country. Some European countries mainly use a 3-phase connection, while others depend more on 1-phase connections to the grid. The table below outlines all the possible ways to charge an Opel Combo-e Life XL 50 kWh. However, it's important to note that some charging modes may not be available in certain regions. Therefore, we recommend contacting your local electric vehicle charging networks to find out which options are available to you.

Fast Charging (10 → 80%)
Fast charging plays a crucial role in increasing the range of your electric vehicle by quickly adding an optimal amount of charge in a brief time. However, once the battery reaches an 80% state-of-charge, the charging power will decrease noticeably. As a result, conventional rapid charging usually stops at 80% SoC. The speed of charging an EV depends on the charging station itself and the maximum charging power that the vehicle can handle. The table below provides a comprehensive overview of fast charging the Opel Combo-e Life XL 50 kWh.
Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%
