Cupra Tavascan VZ AWD charging time by charger power
How long the Cupra Tavascan VZ AWD takes to charge at different charger power levels, capped by its own onboard limits.
| Charger | Power | Charge | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard outlet | 2.2 kW | 0% → 100% | 35 hours |
| Home wallbox | 7 kW | 0% → 100% | 11 hours |
| Public AC | 11 kW | 0% → 100% | 7 hours |
| DC fast | 135 kW | 10% → 80% | 28 minutes |
AC rows assume constant charging power and a 0% to 100% charge. Real times vary with the onboard charger, temperature, and the charger you use.
The DC fast row (10% to 80%) is anchored to a measured charging time for this model, so it reflects the real charging curve. Times still vary with temperature and conditions.
Charging speed
Based on measured data, the Cupra Tavascan VZ AWD charges 10% → 80% on DC fast charging in about 28 minutes, peaking at around 135 kW. ev-DB car/1972 battery+range match (AU spec).
The Cupra Tavascan VZ AWD is estimated to charge from 20% to 80% on public DC fast charging in about 25 minutes (fast DC).

Battery care
This car uses an NMC battery. For daily use, charging to about 80% and topping up to 100% only before long trips helps it last longer; heat is the main thing that ages it.
Savings vs a petrol car
This charge adds about 258 km of range for $27.72. Driving the same distance on petrol would cost:
| Engine size | Petrol cost | You save |
|---|---|---|
| ≤ 1000 cc | $27.62 | -$0.10 |
| 1000–1500 cc | $32.64 | $4.92 |
| 1500–2000 cc | $40.18 | $12.46 |
| 2000–2500 cc | $47.71 | $19.99 |
| > 2500 cc | $57.76 | $30.04 |
Estimated from typical combined fuel use by engine size and Regular unleaded (ULP 91) at $1.95/L. Charging at home saves the most; actual figures vary with driving and conditions.
