Typically, slow charging occurs at home or at work using a three-pin (3 kW AC) power source and the car’s own adaptor. As the name suggests, it’s the slowest option. That said, it’s also very convenient because charging can take place overnight.
However, it’s not recommended that owners leave their cars in a three-pin charging state for an extended period of time because this will lead to accelerated battery deterioration. Please check with the relevant car manufacturer for further details.
Slightly quicker home-charging options are available in the form of a dedicated charging unit with, for instance, a 3.6kW wallbox.
Introducing the Lexus HomeCharge, the clever and fast home charger, providing cost-effective and convenient solutions.
Charging at home gives you control of when you charge your Lexus and for how long. Typically installed on your driveway, the Lexus HomeCharge allows you to take advantage of off-peak energy tariffs, so your vehicle is ready when you need it.
The Lexus HomeCharge is a 7.4 kW, using a type 2 socket and can be connected through the Lexus Link+ App, so you can stay connected on the go. Check your electric charge in real life, remotely start or stop the charge or schedule it for when it best suits you.
Public charging stations are useful when you are on the go, or you can’t install a home wall box in your home. With thousands of charging stations across the UK, longer journeys or daily commuting in an electric or hybrid Lexus has never felt easier.
The Lexus Public Charging Network is a subscription-based model which provides you access to over 500,000 public charging points across Europe. This network works with the Lexus Link+, holding all the information regarding your Lexus together, allowing you to manage your time in advance.
