    Standard portable charging cable (120V/8A)
    Requires 15-Amp (minimum) dedicated outlet

    The Mitsubishi i includes a convenient, portable charging cable that plugs into a standard 120V household outlet (the very same outlet you would use for a toaster, television, lamp, etc.). From empty, the 120V charging method gives you a nice, full battery in about 22.5 hours.

    Prior to charging your Mitsubishi i on a standard household 120V outlet, an inspection is required to make sure that outlet is rated for at least 15 amperes. Our home inspectors can easily check that for you, or you can consult a certified electrician. Remember, you should consider a home electrical inspection as standard procedure before you purchase any electric car. Be safe out there.

    Optional home charging dock (240V/15A, EVSE)
    Requires purchase and installation

    Our recommendation for fast and convenient home charging, the 240V wall-mounted quick-charger gives you a full charge in just 7 hours. Essentially, the 240V charger is your personal "fueling" station. It's convenient, sure, but there's one more thing to consider: all that money you won't be spending on gas. The good news just keeps piling up around here.
