Note that the times shown are only a guide, as very rarely will an EV need to be fully charged from 0%. Times are for a 100% charge for all but rapid charging, which is quoted for 0-80% as most rapid chargers reduce or cut power well before 100% charge to protect the battery and maximise efficiency. The following table shows approximate times to charge a Tesla Model X Long Range. How long does it take to charge a Tesla Model X? For rapid charging, the Type 2 connector required is tethered to the charging unit.


In most cases, slow charging requires a 3-pin-to-Type 2 cable, and fast charging a Type 2-to-Type 2 cable, both of which are usually supplied with the vehicle. Tesla Model X is able to be slow, fast, and rapid charged from public points, depending on network and type of charge unit. The Tesla Model S’s Type 2 inlet is found on the near-side rear 3/4 panel, close to where you would expect to find a petrol flap, though the Tesla opening is much smaller. It is also used to carry high power during rapid DC charging from a Type 2 connector.

The Type 2 inlet is used when charging at home or at public slow and fast AC points. The Tesla Model X uses the Type 2 charging standard, which is used for both AC and DC charging.
