How long does a Tesla Model Y RWD take to charge at home?

A 10% to 80% session is about 5.8 hours at 7 kW in a simplified estimate; actual charging varies.

What is the Model Y RWD maximum AC charging speed?

The indicative maximum onboard AC rate in this guide is 11 kW. A 22 kW AC station cannot exceed the vehicle limit.

Does a faster rapid charger make the battery charge at its full rating?

No. The vehicle, battery temperature and state of charge limit the actual rate.

Tesla Model Y RWD Charging Speed Guide

Plan charging for the Tesla Model Y RWD with indicative battery and power figures. Its family-friendly body uses energy differently from the Model 3, so estimated miles added are lower for the same energy.

At a glance: 57.5 kWh usable battery · up to 11 kW AC · up to 170 kW DC · Type 2 / CCS2 connectors. Check your model year and market.

Vehicle specifications

Battery capacity (nominal)	60 kWh
Usable battery capacity	57.5 kWh
Maximum AC charging	11 kW
Maximum DC charging	170 kW
Estimated efficiency	3.7 miles per kWh
Connectors	Type 2 (AC) / CCS2 (DC)

Estimated charging times

Indicative time to charge from 10% to 80%, adding about 40.3 kWh at a steady rate.

Charger	Effective power	Estimated time
7 kW home (AC)	7 kW	5.8 hours
22 kW AC	11 kW	3.7 hours
50 kW rapid	50 kW	48 minutes
150 kW rapid	150 kW	16 minutes
250 kW ultra-rapid	170 kW vehicle limit	14 minutes

DC charge curves taper as the battery fills. Real 10–80% stops normally take longer than these constant-power estimates.
