Yes and no. Yes, because they have physically smaller battery packs which don’t take as long to replenish as some of the larger EVs with 70kWh-plus units. And no, because smaller electric cars don’t tend to have the super-rapid charging speed capabilities (100kW-plus). That said, most of the cars on our list will take no more than 30 minutes on a rapid DC public connection to go from 10-80 per cent battery charge, while they should all recharge overnight easily when connected to a 7kW domestic wallbox.
