Rivian R1S charging time by charger type
| Charger | 10% → 80% | 0% → 100% | Miles/hour |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 — standard outlet (120 V, 12 A) | 84 h 23 min | 120 h 32 min | ~3 mi/h |
| Level 2 — 32 A home charger (7.7 kW) | 13 h 38 min | 19 h 29 min | ~18 mi/h |
| Level 2 — 48 A home charger (11.5 kW) | 9 h 8 min | 13 h 3 min | ~27 mi/h |
| DC fast charging (up to 220 kW)manufacturer estimate; power tapers past 80% | ~41 min | not recommended | — |
AC times include charging losses (~10% on Level 2, ~20% on Level 1). Cold weather, preconditioning, and the battery's state can stretch these figures. Charging past 80% is slow on DC and gentler on the battery when done on AC at home.
