Don’t like waiting around for your EV to juice up? We get it. In 2025, these 5 electric cars in India are making charging breaks feel more like coffee stops than long naps.
When people think about switching to an electric car, one of the first things they worry about is charging time. And honestly, it makes sense—nobody wants to spend hours just waiting for their car to charge, especially on a road trip or a tight schedule.
Luckily, things have changed fast. EV makers have been pushing hard, and now we’ve got some seriously quick-charging electric cars in India. These are not just brochure claims—we’re talking real-world tested charging times on Indian roads.
1. Kia EV6 – 10 to 80% in Just 18 Minutes
Kia EV6
Yep, just 18 minutes. The Kia EV6 supports 350 kW ultra-fast charging globally, but even with a more commonly available 150 kW DC charger in India, it managed to zip from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes. That’s quicker than most snack breaks. Plus, you get a solid 500 km of range, making this EV perfect for long drives and highway runs.
2. Hyundai Ioniq 5 – Around 21 Minutes to 80%
Hyundai Ioniq 5
Sharing its bones with the EV6, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 offers the same fast-charging capability. Real-world tests on Indian 150 kW chargers clocked it at 21 minutes from 10 to 80%. With a futuristic design and 480 km of range, it blends tech with real usability.
3. BYD Seal – 30 to 80% in Just 25 Minutes
BYD Seal
Just launched and already turning heads. The BYD Seal supports fast charging up to 150 kW. Testing shows it can charge from 30% to 80% in 25 minutes, which is impressive for a sedan this size. With 500+ km of range and a premium, plush cabin, it’s ideal for those who love speed and comfort.
4. Tata Nexon EV Long Range – 56 Minutes, Budget King
In the sub-₹20 lakh segment, the Tata Nexon EV LR is killing it. Thanks to 50 kW DC fast charging, it goes from 10% to 80% in 56 minutes. Not bad at all, especially considering it’s a locally-made, affordable option with a real-world range that covers daily city driving and more.
5. MG ZS EV – Reliable in 60 Minutes
The MG ZS EV might not be the fastest, but it’s consistent. It charges from 10% to 80% in about 60 minutes with a 50 kW DC fast charger. Add to that a 400+ km range, and you’ve got a practical EV that’s ready for everyday use—and road trips too, thanks to India’s growing public charging network.
Why Fast Charging Matters More Than Ever
Let’s be real—nobody wants to plan their life around a charging cable. Whether you’re rushing to work or planning a weekend getaway, faster charging = more freedom. As more high-power chargers pop up across highways and cities, EVs that can charge fast are the real winners.
And in 2025, these five EVs are proving that going electric doesn’t mean giving up convenience.
Final Thoughts
From luxury cruisers like the Kia EV6 and BYD Seal to budget-friendly chargers like the Nexon EV, India now has electric cars that don’t make you wait. These EVs aren’t just quick on the road—they’re lightning-fast at the charger too.
So if you’re planning to go electric this year, don’t just look at range or features—check the charging time. Because at the end of the day, time is money—and nobody wants to waste either.
