Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the NIO EL6 Long Range. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Europe

Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the NIO EL6 Long Range can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

Type 2 (Mennekes - IEC 62196)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Power	Time	Rate
Wall Plug (2.3 kW)	230V / 1x10A	2.3 kW	46h15m	6 mph
1-phase 16A (3.7 kW)	230V / 1x16A	3.7 kW	28h45m	9 mph
1-phase 32A (7.4 kW)	230V / 1x32A	7.4 kW	14h30m	19 mph
3-phase 16A (11 kW)	400V / 3x16A	11 kW	9h45m	28 mph
3-phase 32A (22 kW)	400V / 3x16A	11 kW †	9h45m	28 mph

† = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the NIO EL6 Long Range.

Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%

Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Avg. Power	Time	Rate
CCS (50 kW DC)	50 kW	50 kW	80 min	140 mph
CCS (100 kW DC)	100 kW	90 kW †	44 min	250 mph
CCS (150 kW DC)	150 kW	115 kW †	35 min	320 mph
CCS (175 kW DC)	175 kW	130 kW †	31 min	360 mph
CCS (350 kW DC)	180 kW †	135 kW †	29 min	390 mph

This vehicle supports Autocharge
This vehicle does not support Plug & Charge

† = Limited by charging capabilities of vehicle

Autocharge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations.

Plug & Charge: allows for automatic initiation of a charging session at supported CCS charging stations in accordance with ISO 15118.

Actual charging rates may differ from data shown due to factors like outside temperature, state of the battery and driving style.

Long Distance Suitability

How suitable an electric car is for long trips depends not only on the range. How quickly the car can charge plays an almost equally important role. Whether an EV is suitable for long trips depends on the battery capacity, efficiency, and fast charging capability.

To easily compare cars among each other, a benchmark has been established that combines these factors into the total distance a vehicle can cover with one 15-minute charging stop: the '1-Stop Range'. Based on the 1-Stop Range, the 5-star rating is determined. The result of the benchmark is shown in the graph below.

1-Stop Range

5-Star Rating

The 1-Stop Range describes the distance the vehicle can cover with one 15-minute charging stop. To clearly show the impact of temperature, the 1-Stop Range is determined for three weather conditions. These weather conditions are identical to those in the Real Range benchmark. The 1-Stop Range under average conditions determines the number of stars awarded. The star rating provides a quick way to assess whether a car is suitable for long trips compared to other cars.

Assignment of Stars in 2025

0	less than 124 mi (200 km)
1	from 124 mi (200 km) to 202 mi (325 km)
2	from 202 mi (325 km) to 280 mi (450 km)
3	from 280 mi (450 km) to 357 mi (575 km)
4	from 357 mi (575 km) to 435 mi (700 km)
5	more than 435 mi (700 km)

Star ratings are based on thresholds in kilometers. Mile values shown for reference.

Vehicles with a result between these threshold values receive a rating based on a linear scale. Half stars are possible.
