Charging times for 72 and 88 kWh batteries at 3.6, 7.4 and 8 kW — and what to look for in a 32 A single-phase charger.
Large SUVs such as the BYD Leopard family often carry big batteries, and owners ask whether a single-phase home charger can keep up. For almost everyone, the answer is yes.
| Charger | 72 kWh battery | 88 kWh battery |
|---|---|---|
| 3.6 kW | ~20 h | ~24.5 h |
| 7.4 kW | ~9.7 h | ~11.9 h |
| 8 kW | ~9 h | ~11 h |
Because most nights start well above empty, a 7–8 kW charger comfortably covers daily driving even for large batteries. Check your vehicle's specification for its actual battery size and maximum AC charging power.
A charger only delivers its full rated power when the circuit is right: correct cable size, a dedicated breaker, suitable earth-leakage protection and tidy, protected cable routing.
