A domestic charging station will give you full charge in just over 5 hours whilst a 3-pin domestic socket will take longer at 17 hours. If you are after a speedier charge, then worry not- this vehicle can accept up to 100kW DC rapid charge. This sees the charge soar from 15 to 80 percent in just 30 minutes.

BMW i4 Gran Coupe 250kW eDrive40 M Sport 83.9kWh 5dr Auto

Combining the elegance of a coupe with the practicality of a saloon, this BMW i4 powertrain produces 335bhp and reaches 0-62mph in 5.7 seconds. Like most of the vehicles we mention, the fastest way to charge your BMW is using a DC charger (up to 205kW) so you can reach 80 percent in 30 minutes. Otherwise, an 11kW charger will see your vehicle reach full charge in approximately 8.5 hours. During overrun and breaking of the vehicle, the range will extend slightly using the automatic adaptive energy recuperation ensuring the most efficient driving experience.
Tesla Model Y Hatchback Long Range RWD 5dr Auto
Cost- £476.14 monthly net pay cost
Range- up to 387 miles
This mid-size SUV is just about the quickest on our list with a 0-60mph speed of 5.4 seconds. The speed element of the Tesla Model Y translates to its charging as well; with a maximum 250kW charger, you can get up to 166 miles of charge in as little as 15 minutes. It’s no surprise given that Tesla are the charging giant within the EV industry, owning and operating 70,000+ superchargers across the globe. You don’t have to be on the road to charge up, however, with the Tesla Wall Connector charger being designed for houses, apartments and workplaces.
MG Motor UK Mg4 Hatchback 150kW SE[Nav] EV Long Range 64kWh 5dr Auto

Like all our models listed, charging time very much depends on the charging set up you use. At most, a full overnight charge will take approximately 14 hours using a domestic socket but a 7kW wall box could speed this up, taking around 5 hours to get from 20 to 80 percent.
