Three ways to charge

i MiEV accepts three types of battery charging systems:

Using the on-board charger, the vehicle can be charged with a standard UK 240V domestic power source in the home. All you need is a three pin plug socket and the car will charge itself from completely flat to 100% full in between 6 and 7 hours.

In addition, when quick-chargers (currently being developed by power companies) are available, it will be possible to charge the vehicle from flat to 80% full in as little as 30 minutes.

Finally, the i MiEV comes with regenerative braking, converting kinetic energy via the on board charger
