h. Charging Process at Charging Station

While riding, if SOC level is low or remaining charge is not enough to reach the desired destination, the user can charge the vehicle at charging station. The nearby charging station can be accessed through MY VIDA Customer Application. Charging station has both AC and fast charging outlets. User can choose any of the outlets through MY VIDA Customer Application.

 

• Regular AC charging outlet could be used to charge the vehicle at slower pace than Fast Charger; But it is highly recommended as the overall time taken is still well within reasonable limit. The user has to carry portable charger with the vehicle if user wants to charge the vehicle in AC charging outlet. The time taken for charging is same as charging with portable charger.

• Fast charger is there to charge the vehicle quickly when paucity of time doesn't add value. Vehicle can be charged from 0% to 80% in 60 minutes and 0% to 100% in 1 hr 20 minutes.

 

Note: - Charging time may vary depending on ambient and battery temperature conditions.
