Is a charging time of 9 hours and 15 minutes from 40% to 100% for my Punch EV with a 35 kWh battery, using a 3.3 kW home charger, considered longer than average in India?

For your Punch EV with a 35 kWh battery and using a 3.3 kW home charger, the charging time of 9 hours and 15 minutes to go from 40% to 100% seems typical. Here’s why:

Battery Size: Your Punch EV has a 35 kWh battery, and charging from 40% to 100% means you’re adding about 21 kWh of energy (60% of 35 kWh).

Charger Output: A 3.3 kW home charger will add about 3.3 kWh per hour to the battery.

So, charging 21 kWh with a 3.3 kW charger would take around:

21 kWh/3.3 kW ≈6.4 hours

But, charging times can be longer because of efficiency losses (usually around 10-20%), leading to about 7.5-9 hours, which matches your 9 hours and 15 minutes.

In India, this is normal for a 3.3 kW home charger. Faster home charging would require a more powerful charger, such as a 7 kW charger, which could cut the charging time roughly in half.
