How We Calculate
The time is calculated in half percent steps from your car's usable battery and its own charging curve. We do not use a simple kW table.
- AC: the car draws what its on board charger allows (at most 22 kW), efficiency 90%, power drops above 95%.
- DC: the car's own power curve (from its peak and 10-80 average power), 90% of the charger power for 400 V cars and 100% for 800 V cars, slower above 80%, efficiency 95%.
- Cost: kWh through the meter × Epsis tariff (AC ₺9.90/kWh, DC ₺12.50/kWh; since 4 Mar 2026, taxes included).
- Uncertainty: ±15% for DC times, ±10% for AC times.
- Charger powers: Epsis station data, 13:32.
- Vehicle data: EV Database, üretici beyanları, checked 24 Sept 2026.

Estimates only. Actual time depends on ambient and battery temperature, battery health, charger load and vehicle software. Vehicle data: EV Database and manufacturer claims.
Good to Know
- Your car charges on a single phase (about 7.4 kW at most).
- DC charging slows down noticeably above 80%; above 80% AC is cheaper and kinder to the battery.
- In cold weather (below about 5 °C) without preconditioning, DC charging is slower.
- At DC chargers with two cables, power may be shared when two cars charge at once; it may take longer.
- After charging ends you have 15 minutes free; then an idle fee of ₺2/min on AC and ₺5/min on DC applies. How the Idle Fee Works
How We Calculate
- Fuel: monthly km ÷ 100 × L/100 km × fuel price.
- Electricity: monthly km ÷ 100 × kWh/100 km, with charging losses (home and AC 90%, DC 95% efficiency), priced at home, Epsis AC and Epsis DC rates by your mix.
- CO₂ covers the usage phase: burning the fuel, and generating the electricity with grid losses. Car and battery production are not included.
